I am using uw-imapd on RH 7.1. Thank you for telling me this, I was starting to think I was really brain dead since I could not find anyway to run it standalone. I guess I will go look at the Xinetd definition and see if I cannot reduce the logging a bit. I read the stuff on the Courier-Imap, but got the impression is would not work on RH 7.1, that it needed RH 7.2 (and was not yet available for 8.0). I guess I could get the source rpm from somewhere and compile it and see what happens. Anyone out there using Courier-IMAP on 7.1. I did a search on the archives, but did not find anything.
