Dear PINE-mavens,

I installed the imapd binary in /usr/local/etc/imapd, added 
the following to /etc/services
imap            143/tcp         #mail transfer
and the following to /etc/inetd.conf
imap    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/etc/imapd    imapd
then I refreshed the inetd daemon with a kill -1
I then try to connect from another machine using pine
(with mail collection set to {myserver.luc.ac.be}INBOX)
and I keep getting this stupid message
[[CLOSED] IMAP connection broken (server response)]
What am I doing wrong? I've tried installing the server this way both on 
an RS/6000 using AIX 3.2.5 and on a DEC Alpha 3000 model 800 under OSF 
2.1. Same result in both instances...

Your Email to [email-masked] will be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Jan Martin --- [email-masked] --- http://www.luc.ac.be/~martin/

It's solved --- for some bizarre reason the executables had been gzipped 
without having execute permission, and of course this explain 
everything.
If I had slept at all last night I would have noticed this..
WOrks fine now!
