Hi,
This is just an FYI for anyone else that may run into this problem.
Apparently, with the newer versions of HORDE/IMP (I am using Horde 5 and IMP
6.02), when IMP logs into the IMAP server, via IMAPPROXY, the user name is
passed as a quoted string, which is perfectly valid. In older versions,
the user name was not quoted. So, if you plan to run a protocol trace using
IMAPPROXY XPROXY_TRACE command and see no trace output, it is because you
need to provide your user name to trace using a double quote. In other
words, the command:
XPROXY_TRACE myuser
would work before but with the newest release of horde/imp, you need to use
XPROXY_TRACE "myuser"
instead.
I think a good update to IMAPPROXY would be to have it test the user name
against both quoted and unquoted formats internally. I will send the
developer this suggestion.
Hope this is helpful to others.
Aria
