I was just wondering-----------

What IMAP clients are being used and what problems are associated with those clients?  
Most folks that I've personally talked to are having problems with Outlook and/or 
Outlook Express.

: I want to point out the deleting the UID file does not fix the problem --
: even temporarily -- for all versions of IMail.  I first ran into this with
: 4.07, and I started by talking to MS.  They refered me to a KB article that
: eventually led me to try deleting the UID file.  That did not solve the
: problem.  I'm currently using version 6.06, and I don't think the deleting
: the UID file will help, although I can't recall whether I actually tested
: this.  On the other hand, I've heard from several Version 7 people who have
: been using it while waiting for Ipswitch to fix it.
: 
: My biggest regret out of this is that Ipswitch doesn't say much on the
: subject.  I used to think they were pretending the problem doesn't exist,
: but I think it's so well documented now that they know that we all know
: about it.  I suppose they think they don't have anything helpful to say
: (until the problem is fixed), but it would sure ease the minds of a lot of
: their customers if they would just keep us up-to-date.
