Stranger things have happened. Last week I had the amusing experience of reading an dissertation from their Exchange developers how difficult it was for them to have MSExchange correctly compute RFC822.SIZE, as an excuse for essentially using a random number generator in its place, with the explanation being that they tested "every IMAP client" they could find, and because apparently the IMAP clients didn't apparently object to MSexchange feeding them nonsense it meant it was OK to do that. I've reached the conclusion that there was somethin in Redmond, WA water supply that causes this idiocy. And don't get me started on the time someone else admitted that their in-house mailing list manager was looking for the string "User unknown", verbatim, in the SMTP bounce as the only reason to remove a non-deliverable recipient from their mailing lists. > Is there any way to get around this by configuring Outlook / IMP. > I have tried setting the namespace to INBOX in the IMP case and the root > folder to INBOX in the Outlook case. Setting the root folder is what's supposed to do the trick for Outlook. Now, of course, had Outlook done the job properly you wouldn't need to set it manually, since in theory it should've been done automatically. -- Sam _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
