I have a binc Maildir (IMAPdir) setup working!

I never did get the binc built-in TLS/SSL working so ended up just using
stunnel.  It works.

I converted all my mailboxes to maildir using this mb2md perl script -
which pretty much sucked as it moved everything into new, which didn't
get read.  It took me a solid half hour to get about 25 mailboxes
converted.

I then set up procmail for my user account... I'm using the .forward
method (postfix uses local)... I had to whipe out my .procmailrc and
rewrite it, for some reason everything was having problems writing to
anything.  Rewriting the thing from scratch took about a half hour, but
it's working now.

Then I set up Postfix to deliver mail to $HOME/.Maildir/INBOX.  I would
have preferred Postifx deliver to /var/spool/mail/$USER/ (then symlink
that to $HOME/.Maildir/INBOX) ... but such an option does not seem to
exist.

Then I tested everything (which is actually where my procmail rules got
rewritten).

Now I'm disabling UW-IMAP and putting Binc-IMAP in its place.  Ahh... a
nice day, indeed!

Thanks for the pointers!

Rob
