Title: Untitled Document
I don't see any reason why we all can't move the UW IMAP project over
to SourceForge and continue working on it as a true open source
development. I am very impressed that Mark dedicated so much of his
time to it. Now it is our (collective) turn to start contributing to it.

The build is ok but I decided to use the rpm from the SLES distribution
in the end.
What a coward am I!
Thanks though.
As Mark would say, IMAP-2004 is ancient and there were many
features/fixes introduced since then. For example, I don't think
IMAP-2004 had "mix" format, which IMHO is a "must have" nowadays.

Mix format? Why is that a "must have" nowadays?
Also, As for 2007'c', where would one obtain sources for it? I take it
that it was never actually officially released, but I
seem to remember Mark saying it was "ready to go".
As for other features/work -- does anyone know if another UW project is
picking
up imapw? It seems to be fairly widely used.
It seems that Cyrus IMAP is the only open-source alternative available
that has
any 'traction'? I've been unwilling to abandon the "mbox" format
compatibility
provided by IMAP -- though heaven knows, how many 3rd party open-source
plug-ins don't handle the format (w/rt "From ") correctly all the time.
Not sure I know of many that do. I get "ribbed" by occasional mbox
chomping
by Perl-scripts using CPAN modules and some derivations based on
Berkeley Mail
8.x -- like the 'Nail' version that provides Mail/mailx drop-in
support.
(Maybe that means I'm not 'ribbed' by chomping, but 'nailed'??)...:-|
