Paul,
Yes, I've already been through all the man pages - we're beyond that. (Are you saying the sum total of the docs are those man pages?) How/where would I go about researching the current problem - that we cannot read the body or attachments of any emails using imap? Server is apparently set up OK, as we are connecting, receiving headers, etc. For starters, specifically: If the wiki is not authoritative, where IS the authoritative setup information for a PostgreSQL backend? Have I got it all right? Are my queries correct? Where is the code to 'reconstruct' a complete email message, so I can test the integrity of a message, or of our own SQL integrations? What next?
