UW-IMAP even does IMAP poorly :) I remember a while back ddm discovered that UW-IMAP copied an entire folder to /tmp, opened the file, then deleted it before "purging" deleted messages. The "purge" function was a matter of traversing the open file handle and copying the not-marked-for-deletion messages back to the original folder location. This isn't a bad means of doing this if a) you don't have many users, b) have tons of CPU and memory c) have a HUGE /tmp area, and d) have users who don't have tons of e-mail with huge attachments. -- Seeya, Paul -- Key fingerprint = 1660 FECC 5D21 D286 F853 E808 BB07 9239 53F1 28EE A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
