If the first CRLF you have in the above is after the {14}, so imclient_input
then notices the end of the line has a } and reads back to find the literallen,
I don't see why the above is any different to just fetching a BODY[].. Am I
missing something?

(BTW, with libcyrus as it was, I couldn't FETCH a test mail message with a 96k
attachement, now I can, even when I change the buffer size to 400 bytes, and
successfully copied a users mailboxes and messages using it)

Cheers,
