The following errata report has been submitted for RFC5465,
"The IMAP NOTIFY Extension".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=5465&eid=4833

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Chris Newman <chris.newman@oracle.com>

Section: 5.2, 7

Original Text
-------------
Section 5.2 paragraph 4:
   ...  The FETCH response(s) MUST follow any
   ESEARCH ADDTO responses.

Section 7 paragraph 2:
   Note that the EXISTS response MUST precede any FETCH responses, and
   together they MUST precede the ESEARCH response.

Corrected Text
--------------


Notes
-----
As the RFC is internally inconsistent on this point, servers can have either behavior. I know of at least one deployed implementation that follows the MUST in section 7 rather than the one in section 5.2.

At this point I can't suggest specific corrected text, so this is a hold-for-document-update issue.

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG)
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
