I'm certain there are tools available for this, AFAIK my server application (which is still beta) actually already is or then definitely will be able to do that. > I somehow think your server runs Linux?

Having read your explanation below then this present IMAP-"support" of TB! is useless. At least they have the name in there; that's a start... ;-) > "Proper IMAP support" means server-side folders.

Who/what would synchronize the clients - that could actually only be the IMAP-server? I haven't really understood the technical side so far but: I do need IMAP(v2)-support in TB! for using it the way described even with having an IMAP-application running on my server, is that correct? If so, well, then I got to be patient, maybe a beta is going to be available soon, haven't heard anything lately, though. Thanks for you explanation! IDH (it did help ;-) ) Greetings, Alexander ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.61 FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
