Well, there are patches to make it still work on python 2.4. It's just
that I didn't test it on python 2.4 myself. So it's good that people
scream if they find bugs. That's what we have the rc's for :-).

Yep, that very much does sound like a limit to the message size. What is
the local IMAP server?

Google finds that Zimbra seems to be saying:
2214 BAD parse error: request too long

Others seem to be saying TOOBIG. I am not fit enough in IMAP RFCs to
know what the right answer should be.

A "Could not parse command" error message, doesn't seem to helpful
though....

I am not sure how well we are protecting against these message limit
failures, but we probably should be more robust here too.
