Interesting. I have my IMAPdir/INBOX symlinked to ~/Maildir in order to keep
courier-imap pop3d from breaking and to maintain my original qmail 
configuration and it works just fine, if what you stated was true, since    
~/Maildir is outside the chroot jail of ~/IMAPdir it shouldn't work, but it 
does. Or (and this is highly probably) I could be totally missing what
you're saying :).

Or is my binc implementation not chroot?  Hrm. Need to dig through my config
file.
