I would suggest ethereal it is available in both the ports collection
(/usr/ports/net/ethereal) and from www.ethereal.com.  I has a very nice
X interface that will allow you to filter only IMAP traffic thereby
allowing you to see what's going on with your biff.

Subject: Can this be done?

Sorry for the cryptic header but I can't describe what I'm
trying to do in a small subject field. 

I'm looking for a tool that can show me tcp traffic.  
For example, I've got a windoze biff mail checker.  The 
program doesn't connect to the imap server correctly and
I cannot tell what commands the biff client is sending to
the imap server.

If I had a tool that could capture and assemble the tcp
traffic, I could see what is passing between my imap client
and imap server.

I've tried to get tcpdump to work but it doesn't appear that
it can assemble packets, just reports on the packets themselves.

Is there a tool that can do this?

Doug
