Not much help for this, unless you want to run from CVS, but as a note:
sb_imapfilter.py has been greatly improved for 1.1, and many of these sorts
of problems should be gone.

This presumably means that something about the response was unexpected
(maybe the message couldn't be found).  If you could run with -i4 (e.g.
"sb_imapfilter.py -c -t -i4") and save the output (the IMAP converstaion) to
a file, that would be great.  (Run until the error).

Then EDIT THE FILE TO REMOVE YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD (this should just be
at the top), and send the list/me a copy of it.  From that I should be able
to figure out where it's going wrong.

Thanks for the help!
