Re: [lemonade] Lack of text after resp-text-code
1. I strongly suspect that there are clients that require text to be
there. When the INN NNTP server appeared and sent a single ASCII space
as text, a good few NNTP clients were surprised. I doubt IMAP client
authors are more careful.
2. When compression is used, that text turns to just a few bits anyway
since each particular server usually uses just a few stock phrases.
Compression seems to be deployed fairly quickly (more via TLS than the
Lemonade document, fine with me) so the text matters less and less.
