Right, I think you're going to have a tough time with Cyrus doing that. >What I'd like to do is to have my archives, which are in MH, available >via IMAP. My wife uses mutt, but would like her archives (in mbox >format) available via IMAP. If you remember this thread from last month: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/nmh-workers/2011-12/msg00008.html Paul Vixie made what I consider to be a convincing argument that Maildir support for MH folders is doable and if we get THAT working, you could simply share those folders with a capable IMAP server (which seems to be Dovecot). Paul has also been saying, "Hey, people, why don't you get your shit together and put most of the MH functionality in a shared library so this sort of thing is easier?". Hopefully I can chew on that this month. As I understand it UW-IMAP handles MH folders natively. I hate to spread FUD, but I vaguely remember there were some issues with that. Huh, and I just see a messages from Marc Crispin in 2010 saying that UW-IMAP is a dead project? So if I were you, I'd see about maybe trying to switch to Dovecot if that is possible. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
