Right. Good testing! With Thunderbird and Maildir++ you'll also have to specify INBOX as the server root folder. I'm not sure how this is done in Outlook, but I'm pretty sure it's neccessary there as well. Did you check the lifewithbincimap.org wiki for hints on using these clients? > Maildir++ with symlink INBOX --> . The symlink is only required for IMAPdirs, it's purpose is to make INBOX synonymous with the root folder since vpopmail delivers to the root folder but IMAP clients look in INBOX. > IMAPdir with symlink produces: > The same results as Maildir++ with symlink test; Strange, this should have worked better, both with Thunderbird and Outlook. Do you think you can provide a recording of the actual session between the client and the server too? Check out the ProtocolDumping page on the lwbi wiki for instructions on how to do this. Personally I prefer the strace dump method since it also shows what is going wrong behind the scenes. //Peter
