Has anyone used any IMAP module successfully to read a mailbox on an MS Exchange server? I've tried Net::IMAP::Simple and Mail::IMAPClient, with no luck so far.

Here's some code that I'm using with Mail::IMAPClient:

my $FOLDER_NAME = 'inbox';

my $server = Mail::IMAPClient->new(
                                    Server   => $MAIL_SERVER,
                    User     => $MAIL_USER,
                    Password => $MAIL_PASS,
                    Fast_IO  => 0,
                    Uid      => 1,
                    Debug    => 1,
                                  );

my @folders = @{$server->folders($FOLDER_NAME)};

foreach my $fold (@folders) {
    print "Processing folder $fold\n";
    $server->select($fold);
    my @msgs = $server->search("ALL");
    foreach my $msg (@msgs) {
    print "Processing message $msg in folder $fold.\n";
    my $string = $server->message_string($msg);
    print "String = $string\n";
    }
}

This results in a correct login, but then gives the following errors:

Sending: 2 LIST "" "inbox"

Sent 19 bytes

Note that I can't use Win32-specific modules for this because I am building it to run on a Solaris server.

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
