Greetings,
   I am attempting to get the 3.91 PCpine working on my NOVELL net.
I am running the NE2000 packet driver with PDIPX and NEtX.  Pine is 
configured to look at all of my remote PINE folders on an HP-UX system.
Whe nI start PCpine I get a message that it is attempting to open 
the correct remote folder and then it dies with ithe following error:
[(CLOSED) IMAP CONNECTION BROKEN (SERVER RESPONSE)]

   Anybody out there know what this means?  If so could you please
mail me directly?

Regards,
Michael S. Durham

Hello.  This error message means that the HP-UX server apparently 
accepted an IMAP connection from PC-Pine, but at some point when PC-Pine 
attempted to read an IMAP protocol transaction from the HP-UX server it 
found that the TCP connection was broken.

The first thing to check is that the IMAP server has been properly 
installed on the HP-UX system.  Do any other IMAP clients work properly 
with that server?  A very common mistake is to set up inetd so that it 
answers IMAP connection requests, but fail to install the IMAP daemon 
program (imapd) in the place where inetd has been configured to expect 
it.

If you do not know what the above means, please contact the managers of 
the HP-UX server for assistance.
