UW's IMAP suite comes with a program called "mtest" which will allow you to
check and see if your c-client is working as expected.  I'd try connecting to
your IMAP server with mtest instead of telnetting to the IMAP server, or using a
different mail program... sure that stuff tells you if the server is working,
but it doesn't tell you anything about the IMAP library that you're trying to
link PHP against. If you're building PHP against a broken c-client, the IMAP
functions aren't going to work.
