Section 4.4.1 says:
Example:
C: a GETMETADATA "INBOX" /private/comment /shared/comment
S: * METADATA "INBOX" (/private/comment "My comment"
/shared/comment "Its sunny outside!")
S: a OK GETMETADATA complete
In the above example, two entries and their values are returned by
the server.
Example:
C: a GETMETADATA "INBOX" /private/comment /shared/comment
S: * METADATA "INBOX" (/private/comment "My comment")
S: * METADATA "INBOX" (/shared/comment "Its sunny outside!")
S: a OK GETMETADATA complete
It should say:
Example:
C: a GETMETADATA "INBOX" (/private/comment /shared/comment)
S: * METADATA "INBOX" (/private/comment "My comment"
/shared/comment "Its sunny outside!")
S: a OK GETMETADATA complete
In the above example, two entries and their values are returned by
the server.
Example:
C: a GETMETADATA "INBOX" (/private/comment /shared/comment)
S: * METADATA "INBOX" (/private/comment "My comment")
S: * METADATA "INBOX" (/shared/comment "Its sunny outside!")
S: a OK GETMETADATA complete
Notes:
ABNF in section 5 for "getmetadata" says that when requesting multiple metadata entries, they must be part of a parenthesized list, and not simply space-separated:
getmetadata = "GETMETADATA" [SP getmetadata-options] SP mailbox SP entries
entries = entry / "(" entry *(SP entry) ")"
entry = astring
