I am in a similar situation as Chris: I need to monitor several IMAP mailboxes, some of them on Exchange server. I'd therefore need to provide a list of imaps-URLs to the mailboxes command. So far the manual is clear. However, I have somewhat "strange" usernames. For instance, on one server in the Windows domain "COMPANY" I have an account "christoph" that's associated with the mailbox "christoph.ludwig". Exchange expects me therefore to log on with the IMAP username "COMPANY/christoph/christoph.ludwig". Due to the '/', I cannot put the username into the imaps-URL. That's no problem as long as I want to check only one IMAP server with such a username as I then simply set imap_user accordingly and state the "simple" usernames explicitly as part of the imaps-URL on the remaining accounts. It is not obvious (to me), though, how to deal with several IMAP accounts that have such usernames. Regards Christoph
