And  this  is  what  makes  it very difficult for the developers to find the
bugs!

As  I  understand  it,  they  rewrote the program mainly to get IMAP working
better,  something I never need to use, and then decided to rewrite the rest
of  the  program  as  well.   This has unfortunately opened numerous cans of
worms!   They forgot the old engineering rule of thumb which says, "If it is
working,  leave it alone".  I must confess though that I have been guilty of
the same thing when I have decided to 'improve' one of *my* programs.
