Add imap and imaps protocols to the libcurl library

Post by infratec »

Hi,

at the moment only http, https, smtp and smpts are included as protocols (Windows).
So it is not possible to fetch e-mails.

Please add also imap and imaps.

short after my request I build my own libcurl PB lib with imap and imaps included.
The size growth by 24k.
But it was horrible to get it working. And there is still a small incompatibility.

But I trust Fred, that he know that without the s, no future program which accesses the net will be possible.

And if you write small tools which have to check if there is a special email in your post, you need imaps.

Since we now have 7.68 included and you compiled the new version,
please add imap and imaps.
Else I have to build my own version again to get imaps working with PB.
