Dear all,

We are facing an issue while using imaplib's append operation. We are using append function of imaplib to move a mail from inbox to another folder (we are performing this operation on Outlook 365 account). Sometimes, when our process (the process is running Azure linux VM) performs this operation, it gets hangs up at this point infinitely . When this happens there is no response being returned back for the email server. This issue is causing a huge problem.

Please analyse this problem and give us some solution or suggestion on the same

Thanking you in advance

The bug tracker isn't the appropriate place to ask for help. 

Your problem is most likely with your code, or possibly with the server you're talking to. But you haven't provided us any way of knowing which.

I suggest you ask for help on the python-list mailing list, or maybe on Stack Overflow. But no matter where you ask for help, you'll need to show the code that is causing your problem. You'll want to reproduce the problem with a small example. You should remove any code that doesn't relate to reproducing the problem, and preferably without using any third party libraries.

If you can show that this is a bug in Python, then you can re-open this issue.
