After sending a mail with PHPMailer i want push him on imap mailbox.

I connect succefully with

$this->mbox = imap_open("{" . $this->host . $this->tags ."}", $this->user, $this->pass, OP_HALFOPEN);

imap_check say :

'Mailbox' => string '{outlook-namwest.office365.com:993/imap/notls/ssl/novalidate-cert/user="myuser@mydomain.com"}<no_mailbox>'
$phpMailer->AddAttachment(__DIR__."/".$localFile, basename(__DIR__."/".$localFile), 'base64', 'application/pdf');
$phpMailer->Send();
$dossierTo = "INBOX";
imap_append($this->mbox, "{" . $this->host ."}" . $dossierTo, $phpMailer->GetSentMIMEMessage());
/**
 * result : 
 * PHP Notice:  Unknown: [CLOSED] IMAP connection broken (data) (errflg=2) in Unknown on line 0
 */

I have not this error with very small mail (little attachment : 606 bytes), but with a little bigger like 26,1 Kb (26 776 bytes) is never working... WHY ?
