Hmm, has a quick glance at domain rfc1730
and it seems to suggest that the command
hasn't a syntax error or else it would
return BAD ...
OK your in the selected state which
doesn't support CREATE according to
the rfc? This would indicate though that
sub folders (mailboxes) weren't supported?
Wasn't there something on ILUG about this
a few days ago? I'm confused?
