It really would help to know what goes wrong.............
Kinda difficult to even consider fixing things without that..
Some googling only shows problems with deleting emails, and a simple fix to not
store trash on the server..
I do not have leopard and will not have this anytime soon I think, my mac is
not fast enough..
Anyways, I do not see anyone having a dismissive attitude of things related to
apple and osx..
Nor did I see this before...

Subject: Re: [qmailtoaster] QT / Courier-IMAP and Apple's Leopard (OS X 10.5)
It's not a bug, as it works just fine with the Postfix server (i.e. Dovecot).
It (Apple's Mail Client) also works fine with Apple's dot-Mac and OS X Mail
Server(obviously), but also Google's IMAP services, Yahoo's IMAP services, and
others. This hardly qualifies as a unique bug on Apple's end (particularly
since their apps are standards compliant to a fault, almost).
I really do feel that this kind of dismissive attitude of things related to
Apple and Mac OS X is what stands in the way of pro-active, and positive
development, sadly.

My feeling is that you are right, it should be looked into, although this
is the wrong forum to post bugs in the Leopard mail client.

No, of course not, which is why I carefully worded my subject line.
I've used it under Tiger and its Mail Client (Mail.app v2.0) since Day
One, and never had an issue.
This issue only surfaced, and was reported in multiple places, since
the release of Leopard 10.5 and the associated Mail Client (Mail.app
v3.0).
