Well, just as I remove the imap option, up pops an app that doesn't use ssl. So, back comes the imap. I changed the run prog to have --allow-plain but it still wouldnt work. I changed the conf to allow plain and it works. ie, the command line didn't override the conf. So I have 2 choices, I can either make the conf have "allow plain = yes" or I can have 2 conf files, one with it yes for the imap and the other with it no for imaps. At the moment I have 2 conf files. What are consequences of having just the 1 conf file with allow plain = yes for imap and imaps? In the future I will be allowing internet access on imaps and intranet access on imap. fwiw.
Thx John
