(Hope this is not a duplicate -- I tried sending it from Mozilla on Linux (my first try) and it didn't seem to go, nor a subsequent test mail to myself, so I'm remailing from Windows. There are a few slight changes from the original, enclosed in asterisks. (PS: My mail server definitely works, I can send mail from another Linux box via Pine -- I just apparently don't have Mozilla on the other box set up correctly.)
Questions: * How do I create additional IMAP folders and make them "visible" from another computer running an IMAP mail client? (See "Background" below *and note that I can see the inbox (under /var/spool/mail/dad) on the email server*.) * Anybody know of a good concise reference on IMAP, especially one that might touch on the above? Background: I've got a local email server running (finally ;-) ), and am using procmail to do a few things, including filtering mail into different folders on the email server. (Under my user directory, /home/dad/mail.) I've tried a few different IMAP email clients (primarily from Mandrake 8.2 -- Mozilla 0.9.8, KMail, Sylpheed (well it never comes up) and Mohagany 0.64-2 on Windows) -- so far I can't see any of those other folders from a client computer. *I can see the inbox on the server from the client computer.* (I haven't tried an IMAP client on the server yet.) Is there something special I must do to make a folder visible to an IMAP client? What? Must the folders be below, for example, /var/spool/mail(/dad) instead of /home/dad/mail to be visible to IMAP? thanks, Randy Kramer
