I believe when I used to do something similar, I used slocal instead of rcvstore. I'm sorry to say that I don't remember what made me switch, and I might have switched the other way. If you have a second to look at slocal, it might be better for you. Sorry I can't be more help. > Others would like to access an IMAP server using nmh.

This is basically what I used to do with nmh+fetchmail -- I pulled mail down from kpop/imap sources with fetchmail into nmh for normal reading with mh-e, and occasionally used a webmail client against the original imap/kpop source for those special cases. It didn't handle all the corner-cases correctly, but it wasn't too bad. A version of MH that could speak IMAP natively seemed possible at the time, and I remember brainstorming some hacks around the `anno' problem, but nothing ever came of it, of course. I switched away from mh-e/nmh a while ago when I suddenly needed to care more about Word attachments, formatted email, and the like. The built-in spam system was also a big incentive at the time. Hope that helps, *Chad _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
