I use Mutt on the local IMAP system, I also use Squirrelmail, and the Mulberry Client.

They all work together fine as they should.

If Exim is your MTA, you can modify it to use the MAILDIR format.

If you define your .muttrc to behave a specific way it will.

I think this is the section of the '.muttrc' you will need to define to read IMAP Maildir files:

.muttrc
mailboxes=INBOX
$USER = 'yourname'
$MYIMAPSERVER 'yourserver or ip'
$MYHOSTNAME = 'domain on messages'
set imap_user="$USER"
set spoolfile={"$MYIMAPSERVER"}
set folder={"$MYIMAPSEVER"}
set record=imap://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX.Sent
set postponed=imap://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX.Drafts
set maildir_trash="yes"
set imap_list_subscribed=yes
set check_new=yes
set mbox_type=Maildir
set hostname=$MYHOSTNAME

My IMAP server is laid out like this:
$USER/Maildir
        cur
        new
        tmp
        .Trash
        .Drafts

Here's my current setup: ======================== exim-4.12, procmail-3.22, mutt-1.5.4-r1

~/Mail/INBOX/
~/Mail/folder1/
~/Mail/folder2/
...
========================

This is working nicely with mutt and procmail.


I would like to continue using mutt and procmail, but I would also like to use courier-imap and squirrelmail to access these same folders. Every time I try to access or create a folder whose name does not begin with '.', I get an "Invalid mailbox name".
