What a crap-crud answer... elitist nonsense.

The fact is FAM sucks, and is most likely the culprit. A quick google
will tell you all you need to know. This problem has NOTHING to do with
Windows.
I 'm looking forward to the original poster trying your suggestion, and
reporting back the results.

Hello. I am the original poster.

I don't know if itis a FAM fault either because i had the same problem when
imap-courier was running without FAM.

Now, I'll patiently wait while the bigmouth eats some crow.


Below is imap tcp dumps (actually tcpflow -c '(port imap)')
(084.021.226.211 - is the server, 192.168.x.x - client)

Again, I count 14 messages.

Hmm... both dumps show 14 messages with the same flags. So, it IS MS OE problem 
after all, right?

Yes. But for some strange reason everyone who has problems with Microsoft's crapware always blames it on the server, first. For some reason, nobody who finds themselves in your situation suspects Microsoft's virus delivery system of misbehaving. They always assume that it must be a server problem, and that there never any bugs in Microsoft's crap.

If so, can anyone recommend a GOOD IMAP client for WIndows ? T-bird?

Yes, Thunderbird.
