Re: IMAP server, anyone?

Good. At aleast I wasn't seeing things!
I have been having success with the 2000c version of the server with
some patches. This version runs ok for me with a typical inetd.conf
configuration and it handles multiple users without trouble. It will
put your INBOX file in /var/mail/<username> and any other mailbox
files in your home directory.
One thing that always bothered me about IMAP servers is that they
present your whole home directory when subscribing to mailboxes. I would
prefer it if there was a setting to say "Just show me what's under say
~/Mail". Perhaps there is...
I imagine the latest versions work fine on linux, so if you're going
to be putting this server on your linux box, a new version of imap
(2002c) was just announced.
Still trying to get sendmail configured properly on my Linux box. I did
set up the IMAP daemon and it seems to be functioning as expected already.
