Good to know, I wasn't even aware of their IMAP
capabilities. I'll
definitely check out especially mutt, as I do very much like this
client.
Pine was written by the *creators* of IMAP...
btw, I tried mozilla 1.6 just a few minutes ago as I
read on /. that
it supposedly solves some IMAP problems, but it still doesn't list
all of my folders :-/
It still has the show-stopper bug that precludes me from even
considering recommending its use for IMAP (#230887).
Forgot to say in my previous email: The reason it doesn't list all
your folders is probably because you have "list only subscribed
folders" set or a "server mail path" (that you shouldn't have) set,
in
the "advanced" section of the server properties.
