Sigh. That works for people that control their environment. It doesn't work for the pletoria of cases where you have to rely on the hosters. Most hosters would never install anything from PECL. As far as I know, ext/imap works, it's not beautiful, but it works. So no need to remove it. cheers, Derick -- http://derickrethans.nl | http://xdebug.org Like Xdebug?
