 Hi Davide, before links to the latest versions of our patches here are
some needed explanations because it seem to be a bit of confusion about
what those patches do, so here we go:

   We have http://mircea.smartpost.ro/download/POP3Svr2.cpp.diff.bz2 that
is a patch for the POP3 server component of XMailserver that eliminate
double messages and other confusion due to the peculiar way of
Courier-IMAP stroring messages in folders. This patch is small,
non-intrusive and altough specialised four Courier-IMAP way of storing
data I think that it can be integrated until Xmailserver will get IMAP
because from my experience  and others it seem to be the best solution
until native IMAP

   We also have 
http://mircea.smartpost.ro/download/courier-imap-crlf.patch.bz2 that is
patch for the Courier-IMAP daemon that make it work with cr/lf
terminated files of Xmail, while this patch is more complex is also
clear what it does and was rejected by Sam of Courier fame only because
of political reasons like "a Unix program has to deal with the Unix way
of storing files.." But aside from this the patch integrates perfectly
with Courier-IMAP at least until version 3.0.6 ( not tested yet with
3.0.7 but I'll do it soon ) and we use it here to a score of quite busy
servers and never got Peter's problem with thunderbird and attachments,
bug reports are welcome.

 In the end, to have an working instalation you'll need to patch both
programs and recompile them, some RPMS for Mandrakelinux 9.2 are in
http://mircea.interplus.ro/ftp/ultraupdates and Radu Spineanu that is
also on that list maintain Debian packages.

  Hope that helps and we pray that soon we'll have native IMAP ;)

    Best regards,

    Mircea Ciocan
