Yes

No. You can use the modern programs (such as mailutil).

Further, current versions of UW-IMAP *do* include the obsolete imap-utils
package (such as mailutil)?

Current versions of the UW IMAP toolkit include modern tools that replace the programs that were in imap-utils.


Which version of UW IMAP was imap-utils first merged with?

imap-2002.

Do newer versions of UW-IMAP require modifying the CREATEPROTO= variable
in the osdeps Makefile? (This is suggested in the IMAP-FAQ.)

If you want a different default for newly-created mailboxes, yes.

(It may seem odd that I'm using an older version of UW IMAP. Fact is, I'm
using a hosting provider running Ensim WEBppliance Pro on Redhat 7.3.
They're currently testing more current versions of Ensim on Fedora Core
1--hopefully they'll roll it out soon as it uses more current versions of
UW IMAP.)

Why can't you just install an updated version from the UW FTP server?
