hello there,
I wrote a skript on Debian Lenny with Mail::IMAPClient and it works fine
but the destiny server is an Debian etch system
so i copy it on a test etch system and it doesn't work very well...
print Dumper $imap->folders();
$folder="INBOX";
if($imap->selectable($folder)){
      print "entrace the inbox\n";   
      $imap->select($folder) or die "Could not select: $@\n";
}

error mesage for ->folders() line:
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/Mail/IMAPClient.pm line 2168.

error message for ->select() line:
3 BAD Unknown command d6if512534fga.8

i don't no why it's wrong
i have read the IMAPClient.pm again and again and again
the functions are there but it fails
is this a known problem
or i am so stupid ^^?!
Virtuelle/live machine(s) (etch):
dpkg -l | grep libmail => libmail-imapclient-perl 2.2.9+deb-4

Local machine (Lenny):
dpkg -l | grep libmail => libmail-imapclient-perl 3.08-2

it's very annoying that it works on lenny but not on etch the problem is i can't change the versions on the destiny machines, no permission ....
