Attempting to download a regular IMAP folder I'm getting the following traceback:

Synchronizing 23 messages from hostname:INBOX to /home/marius/hostname/username... ERROR:root:Couldn't retrieve uid b'116' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/marius/src/imap2maildir/simpleimap.py", line 445, in Summaries summ = self.__parent.get_summary_by_uid(u) File "/home/marius/src/imap2maildir/simpleimap.py", line 303, in get_summary_by_uid return self.parse_summary_data(data) File "/home/marius/src/imap2maildir/simpleimap.py", line 334, in parse_summary_data combined_data = ' '.join(data) TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, bytes found FINISHED: Turboed 0, handled 0, copied 0 (0 bytes), last UID was 0 INFO:main:FINISHED: Turboed 0, handled 0, copied 0 (0 bytes), last UID was 0

The command I'm using is:

$ ./imap2maildir.py -H hostname -u username -d -r "INBOX" --create

I got the same when I ran with python3. Try running it with python2 as mentioned in #24 ?
