I'm painfully aware of the fact that I don't know all that I don't know about imap (among other things).
Anyway, the problem is that since we moved our mail server from solaris/sendmail to msexchange, I don't see all of the mail in my inbox from an imap client. Using mslookout I can see all messages (one would hope anyway), but using either netscape or pine there are always a few missing in action. As far as I know I don't do anything different from one time to the next, and there are no special permissions on my inbox or any folders. I keep all folders on the server along with the inbox. Moving a message from the inbox to a folder doesn't make it visible to the client if it is initially not seen by the client. Any clues to what is going on? Looking on the UW imap site and a few others devoted to imap gives no clue of this ever happening to anyone else. Also, realizing that imap is server based, is there anyway to truley manage mail on the server, say to delete or move a message via a client so that it is really deleted or moved on the server? If I move a message or delete it, any imap client sees that result, but if I then log on to the server via mslookout, none of the changes are there. Everything is still in the inbox folder. This obviously is a design feature of imap, but it would be good to be able to manage folders on the server for real instead of the virtual reality of the imap client. Thanks, -jhb- PS - I'll accept condolences, but no criticism, for the move to msexchange. I had no part in the decision. In fact I successfully beat it down for a number of years until we were the losing party in a corporate merger. It has been a real pita (in more ways than one). _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
