RFC 3516, "IMAP4 Binary Content Extension", April 2003

Note: This RFC has been updated by RFC 4466

Source of RFC: IETF - NON WORKING GROUP

Errata ID: 8217
Status: Reported
Type: Technical
Publication Format(s) : TEXT
Reported By: Simon Ser
Date Reported: 2024-12-21

Section 7 says: 

   msg-att-static =/  "BINARY" section-binary SP (nstring / literal8)
                      / "BINARY.SIZE" section-binary SP number

It should say:

   msg-att-static =/  "BINARY" section-binary ["<" number ">"] SP (nstring / literal8)
                      / "BINARY.SIZE" section-binary SP number

Notes:

Section 4.3 describes the response as:

BINARY<section-binary>[<<number>>]

But the number is missing from the ABNF.

It seems like Dovecot sends the number in the response, and imaptest expects it.
