[QtMoko] Yahoo-imap problem

Hello everyone,
I've a "small" problem retrieving my emails from my yahoo account using 
the imap protocol.
It works well, that is the messages are correctly downloaded, but the 
exit code(?) is always wrong and the bodies of the messages are not 
downloaded, even if their size is below the "download limit".
A screen-shot of the problem is visible at [1].

I think that the problem could be related to what stated at [2]:
"However they require a specific, non-standard IMAP command to be sent 
before login is done, namely: “ID ("GUID" "1")”. This non standard 
command ..."
but I'm not sure at all ;-)

Any suggestion is welcome!

Best regards
Giacomo
