Re: [evolution-patches] fix for "Error: Success" with imap

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

someone on IRC posted a subsection of an strace that I took a look at.

whatever IMAP server he was using, we sent STATUS <mailbox> (...)\r\n,
got a successful write, then tried to read and got:

read (36, "", 1024) == 0
fcntl64...
close (36) == 0
