So why did you do a STATUS of the mailbox if the ctime hadn't changed? It isn't as if IMAP doesn't provide mailbox status flags to tell you that. Perhaps you use a client which doesn't know how to check those flags. I also don't think that running a server which is known to be non-compliant in many ways (Courier) is an improvement. -- Mark -- http://staff.washington.edu/mrc Science does not emerge from voting, party politics, or public debate.
