Isn't \* meaning is "you can store any new flag" ?


20 select INBOX
* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)] Flags permitted.

so no \* ...

50 store 1 +flags $MDNSent
* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft $MDNSent)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft $MDNSent)] Flags permitted.
* 1 FETCH (FLAGS ($MDNSent))
