I tried courier-imap and it was flaky, went back to UW. Not fancy, but easy to set up, supports SSL, and just works. > The big issue is migrating mail which is in mbox > files.

I've been waiting (why so long?) for them to add SSL support, once that's done I'm hoping it'll become the default IMAP server. It's got that wonderful SIEVE (server-side filtering) stuff, and look...people on the MandrakeClub are clamoring for it. I'm tired of hearing it won't make it in because of the license, I think someone has something against it. I hope someone comes up with a clear explanation of what the deal on that is. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
