Just curious, what does the result of a LIST with "~/Mail" look like on UW IMAP? What is the top node labeled as? I guess I could add a parameter to control the behaviour of the LIST call.
Cheers, Ryan

Hi Ryan, I thought I'd jump in on this since it gives me a good reason to learn a little more about how IMAP works. ;-) I logged in via telnet to my test system and determined (with some help from the IMAP4 RFC) that the command being executed is LIST "" * Since the UW IMAP server logs the user into their system account I can only assume that this drops them into their home directory. If I execute the requested command it will return nothing unless a Mail directory exists in the users subdirectory. (I have one user setup this way from earlier tests and one without the directory.) Executing the command LIST Mail * returns the same as LIST ~/Mail * for the user with a Mail directory. I will attempt to do some checking on the functionality of the .imaprc file that is sort of documented and see if this can be used to work past the problem. -- Jack Ungerleider The Ungerleider Group Creative Solutions for Cooperative Computing jack@jacku.com www.jacku.com
