Nope. I think they run qmail.

Rediff run qmail. And then decide to hide their qmail behind a Cisco Pix
mailguard (one of the most braindead and broken smtp firewalls around, which
completely breaks ESMTP, and breaks several SMTP verbs, violates assorted
RFCs etc, in the vague hope of providing "security by obscurity")
Eth runs IIS. [yuck, thoo...]

There's a configuration option (compile courier imap with
--enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs)

Everybody has heard of cat, to concatanate files and print to
standard output. But have you heard of "tac" ? This reads file
reverse. Try 'tac somefile.txt' and have a look ... or better
still 'tac somesound.au > /dev/audio' ... Enjoy !
