Subject: imapd too strict?

We have found that the imapd which comes with pine 3.89 and 3.91 seems
rather strict about the Unix mailbox format. Maybe elm 2.4.23 is too lax but
it reads mailboxs without any trouble where imapd thinks that the mailbox
is one single mail item.

I've checked the tech notes without any success. Has anyone else seen
this sort of problem and does anyone have any ideas? These Unix style
folders were created from IBM VM/CMS notebooks after much testing to
make sure they conformed.

Thanks.
