The right way is to use tmail and/or dmail for delivery.
I regret ever putting in code into mbx format that accounts for the spool
in STATUS. My punishment for this ill-considered effort to be helpful was
bug reports from individuals who were upset that spool messages did
not show up in EXAMINE of a mix INBOX. Snarfing is a write operation;
the whole point of EXAMINE is to be strictly read-only.
I learned the lesson and did not repeat that mistake in mix.
ok, i'll switch to using dmail.
speaking of features that cause problems, the feature of uw-imap that will
let users login as User or USER or user bites me on a regular basis. we
use squirrelmail and have some plugins that do vacation/procmail setup and
it uses ftp to do that, so if they log in as User, then the ftp doesn't
work :-).
