That's right. I've been using 1.2.5 until 1.3.23 was out, since I could not compile some earlier 1.3.x versions and was lazy to find out why. 1.3.23 compiled nicely and indeed worked quite smoothly out-of-the-box with my 1.2.5 config files. I only made changes to take advantage of new and enhanced features. I've been using it since (over IMAP/GSSAPI) and it works great, thanks developers! IMAP works faster and deleting attachments over IMAP now works (was never working in 1.2.5i for me). Have not seen any bugs, so I would recommend 1.2.23 to anybody. I would even vote for calling it 1.4.0! Best, Petr
