Compilation error

[faide]

Hi,

the current code does not compile. Most certainly because of an updated underlying library.

If I understand what is going on, it seems the go-imap-proxy code tries to use (go-imap-proxy/mailbox.go:16) the m.u.c.Mailbox function as a struct. So go-imap-proxy seems to be the culprit here.

That is the first error. Did not look at the others though.

Are you still interested by that code ? (ie: would you be interested in some help ?)

When I try to compile from a fresh clone I get the following errors:

I have looked a bit into this and proposed:

emersion/go-imap-proxy#4
emersion/go-pgpmail#2

with those 2 PRs applied to their respective repositories, maddy compiles without error

Awesome, thanks a lot!
