IMAP support

Dear All,

I'm trying to port my scripts using unix mboxes to IMAP4 boxes.

I can't even connect to my server with the following :

---------------
my $imap   = Mail::Box::IMAP4->new(username => 'zorro',
    password => 'garcia', server_name => 'imap.domain.tdl');
---------------

I receive the following error message :

---------------
Can't use string ("LOGIN") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use 
at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/Mail/Transport/IMAP4.pm line 97.
---------------

What's going on ?

I suspect an incompatibility with my IMAP server.
Does anybody have an experience whith DbMail ?

TIA for any hint.
