Hi Pawel,

No, only what I wrote: balsa downloads the headers, then there's the
OK FETCH, then the "cannot recover":

IMAP C: 7 FETCH 121 (BODYSTRUCTURE BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS.NOT (DATE
SUBJECT FROM SENDER REPLY-TO TO CC BCC IN-REPLY-TO MESSAGE-ID)])
IMAP S: * 121 FETCH (BODYSTRUCTURE ("TEXT" "PLAIN"  ("charset"
"ISO-8859-1") NIL NIL "QUOTED-PRINTABLE" 225 15 NIL NIL NIL)
BODY[HEADER.FIELDS.NOT (DATE SUBJECT FROM SENDER REPLY-TO TO CC BCC
IN-REPLY-TO MESSAGE-ID)] {293}
X-Mailer: Lotus Notes Release 6.0.2CF1 June 9, 2003
X-MIMETrack: Serialize by IMAP Server on [server](Release 6.5.5|November
30, 2005) at 23/10/2006 14:52:49
MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable


)
7 OK FETCH completed
scanning '' for tag number failed. Cannot recover.

----

looking at libbalsa/imap/imap-handle.c it seems that imap_cmd_step
gets an empty string, since sscanf() fails and balsa disconnects:

 /* our command tags are hexadecimal numbers */
 if(sscanf(tag, "%x", &cmdno) != 1) {
   printf("scanning '%s' for tag number failed. Cannot recover.\n", tag);
   imap_handle_disconnect(handle);
   return IMR_BAD;
 }

Perhaps the Notes server inserts a newline somewhere where balsa
doesn't expect it?

Any ideas?
Cheers,
