When an IMAP server is behind a proxy, the proxy's capabilities may differ from that of the actual IMAP server. However, in Python imaplib, the client will ignore any updates to available capabilities in the response to the LOGIN command (see rfc3501, section 6.2.3). As a result, imaplib will incorrectly assume that certain features are not available (including the IDLE patch in issue 11245, and as implemented in getmail 4.43.0). imaplib should refresh its capability list either based on the result of the login command or by explicitly sending a CAPABILITY command following login.
