Gentlemen:
For those of you who are not yet believers, I submit proof that Arachne
does support IMAP. The message appended below was retrieved by my
Arachne from "pop.telebot.net", an IMAP server. Moments before, I had
used the Barebones DOS email system to send the message to myself at
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I retrieved the message with my Arachne.
The message is shown, headers and all, but with headers remarked out by
myself.
