Hello,

I have installed imap-backup on both a Ubuntu and MacOS system (using homebrew) and receive the following error when running "imap-backup setup" immediately after entering an email address. Versions of Ruby on each system are:

$ ruby -v ruby 2.6.8p205 (2021-07-07 revision 67951) [universal.arm64e-darwin21]

and

$ ruby -v ruby 2.7.0p0 (2019-12-25 revision 647ee6f091) [x86_64-linux-gnu]

I have near-zero Ruby experience, so apologies if this is a simple issue. Thank you for any assistance.

An update, I tried to install diff version of the gem and found that the error starts at version 6.1.0, using anything before that I do not get that error

[jaccorens]

I can confirm that the issue is not present in version 6.0.1 (gem install 'imap-backup' -v 6.0.1), but is present in 6.1.0 and 6.2.1

Thank you all for your reports.
