>Description:

please follow up this bug report with a statement whether you approve of
the patch or not.

Note that there have been past maintainer timeouts on this port, and I
may reset maintainership if this PR times out again.

Thank you.

Added file(s):

Bump portrevision.

This patch uses RFC-2060/3501 standard PEEK commands to avoid mail downloaded
through IMAP from being marked as read on the server.  Charles Cazabon
has repeatedly refused to fix the bug with spurious arguments, but the
reports come up time and again.

This has been successfully tested against various Cyrus IMAP and Dovecot
versions, GMX.net, web.de, Yahoo, Exchange 2003, and fixes the original
poster's problem (from Feb 2011).
