Hello

Although I agree the situation is somewhat unlikely, it did happen to
us. ie an email that was corrupt caused an issue where other mails
couldn't be downloaded at all. The problem wasn't obvious either, as the
email causing the problem was not easily seen.

Chris has much more in the way of technical details but has been very
busy recently, so hasn't had a chance to respond.

If the patch won't cause any issues with normal mail handling I can't
see why it shouldn't be included?

Bug description:
On Open ERP 6 Trunk, up to date as of 5th August 2010, I get an error when running Mailgate (Fetchmail) against our internal mailserver running IMAP.

Error I get in log is 

WARNING:imap:expected string or buffer

Just before hand I get :-

INFO:imap:fetchmail start checking for new emails on comms
[2010-08-04 09:23:54,490] INFO:mailgate:Message without message-id, generating a random one: 1280913834.49

Not sure if relevant or not. Obviously talking to our mail server ok, but not reading emails.

I can get mail successfully when running against my Fastmail account running IMAP, so my installation does work fine for other ISPs.

If you need more details, I can get them
