When I download and un-gzip the imap sample capture,

http://www.ethereal.com/sample/imap.cap.gz

I get:

[user@host dir]$ tethereal -v
tethereal 0.9.0, with GLib 1.2.10, with libpcap 0.5, with libz 1.1.3, with 
UCD SNMP 4.1.2

[user@host dir]$ tethereal -r imap.cap

tethereal: "imap.cap" appears to be damaged or corrupt.


It looks like a corrupt file or a pcap problem, but this file is on the 
ethereal web site.  Can anyone successfully read this file?
