6.3.OBS.4. UNSUBSCRIBE MAILBOX Command
Arguments: mailbox name
Data: no specific data for this command
Result: OK - unsubscribe completed
NO - unsubscribe failure: can't unsubscribe that name
BAD - command unknown or arguments invalid
The UNSUBSCRIBE MAILBOX command is identical in effect to the
UNSUBSCRIBE command. A server which implements this command must
be able to distinguish between a UNSUBSCRIBE MAILBOX command and
an UNSUBSCRIBE command with a mailbox name argument of "MAILBOX".
Example: C: A002 UNSUBSCRIBE MAILBOX #news.comp.mail.mime
S: A002 OK UNSUBSCRIBE MAILBOX from #news.comp.mail.mime
completed
C: A003 UNSUBSCRIBE MAILBOX
S: A003 OK UNSUBSCRIBE from MAILBOX completed
6.4.OBS.1 PARTIAL Command
Arguments: message sequence number
message data item name
position of first octet
number of octets
Data: untagged responses: FETCH
Result: OK - partial completed
NO - partial error: can't fetch that data
BAD - command unknown or arguments invalid
The PARTIAL command is equivalent to the associated FETCH command,
with the added functionality that only the specified number of
octets, beginning at the specified starting octet, are returned.
Only a single message can be fetched at a time. The first octet
of a message, and hence the minimum for the starting octet, is
octet 1.
