Pascal - Thanks! That was exactly my problem - I was trying to see if Mozilla's IMAP workd on Netscape's IMAP account and it kept failing to access server.
Since the settings were identical, I thought it might be that Netscape allowed Netscape 6.2 to access it but not Mozilla - and you just confirmed it! It should work on other non-proprietary IMAP servers, this should work? And about writing in English to answer my question - you did not have to apologize at all! You must be very good at both languages so that you probably move between the two without realizing it (you read my question in English but answered in Spanish)! And thanks to you for recognizing it and bothering to send me a second email!
