i'm not using it, but i read about "Outbox" folder: http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/INSTALL.html#imapsend SENDING MAIL VIA AN IMAP CONNECTION This server allows using the IMAP connection to send E-mail. Normally, the IMAP protocol provides only access to mail in an existing mail account, and mail clients must use SMTP in order to send mail. The Courier-IMAP server has an optional setting to enable mail to be send via an IMAP connection in a manner that should work with all existing IMAP mail clients. This can be useful when an account is logged in from a shared access pool which normally blocks most access to the SMTP port. This is implemented by enabling a setting in the imapd configuration file that designates a folder as a special "Outbox" folder. The default setting is a folder called "Outbox" (IMAP path INBOX.Outbox), but the name can be changed to anything. This folder, for the most part, is no different than any other folder. If a folder by that name doesn't exist, it needs to be created, just like any other IMAP folder. It looks and acts like any other folder, except that each message added to the folder, via IMAP's APPEND or COPY command, will also be mailed out by the Courier-IMAP server to the addresses listed in the To:, Cc:, and Bcc: headers. our users must use smtp server with SMTP AUTH ... i don't know, if i can check From: with "Outbox" ... -- 5o Peter.Mann at tuke.sk ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
