IMAP download from Exchange 2007
Hi,
I find that the pilerimport -i command is failing to pull email from Exchange 2007. I am using the VMWare image which I downloaded today - 0.1.21. The command results an error. I turned on IMAP protocol logging on Exchange and see this:
A1 AUTHENTICATE PLAIN Y2FsbABjYWxsAEZpcmb29k < A1 BAD Command Argument Error. 12
I think Exchange 2007 might not support the AUTHENTICATE PLAIN command. I sent the CAPABILITY command to IMAP and got this response:
- CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 AUTH=NTLM AUTH=GSSAPI AUTH=PLAIN STARTTLS IDLE NAMESPACE LITERAL+
If I telnet to Exchange 2007 IMAP then I can send this command with plain text credentials to log into the mailbox successfully:
1 LOGIN username password
Is it possible to add a parameter to pilerimport to use this plain text login format? A POP3 download option (or a tie-in with getmail) might give more flexibility. Thanks for the great work.

I switched from the authenticate command to "login". Please download the latest master branch, recompile piler, and let's see whether it can download your emails.
