I'd like to say yes, there is, but I sort of made it up as I found things. The core of 2) is as I said: Support hierarchical stores and all the required methods on them (delete & rename). How the hierarchical stores work is another matter and, as long as it works with minimum changes to the current method, it is up to you. When IMAP references a store it uses notation like: #mail.jw.INBOX which is translated to jw/ (this is also the same path as the POP3 mailbox as well) , or #mail.jw.Drafts which is translated to jw/Drafts/ So you need to be able to get a user's main repository (inbox) and list/edit/delete all the repositories beneath it. POP3 doesn't support this so James doesn't support it either. Hope this makes sense, but feel free to ask more questions. -- Jason > > > Regards, > Kervin > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
