I might be able to work around the problem if I had a Lotus Notes  
server or a Microsoft server to test against, but I don't. It seems  
likely that your server is including additional empty response lines  
for some reason. This is not spec compliant: see

  http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1939.txt

section 3.

If you were willing to set up a test server with external access, and  
give me valid credentials for it, I could test this hypothesis and  
perhaps come up with a patch for GNU JavaMail. Otherwise I recommend  
you use the RI, which will be published under GPL shortly.
