Being the sucker that I am, I switched to the experimental POP/IMAP
server today. Every client I have tried against it has worked, with
one exception: fetchmail acting as a Kerberos-4-authenticated-IMAP
client. (The other clients I tried were from, movemail, fetchmail,
and pop as KPOP clients and imtest as a Kerberos-4-authenticated-IMAP
client.) The command I ran to see this was
fetchmail -c -v -p IMAP-K4 po12
which generated the following output:
fetchmail: 4.6.0 querying po12 (protocol IMAP-K4) at Fri Nov 19 14:15:25 1999
