[SLUG] IMAP (UW imapd)
I've been trying to switch our office server to IMAP for q while, and having initially problems with email clients. I've tried Outlook and Outlook Express (yeah, I know, boo hiss), Eudora, Pegasus and now Thunderbird, which seems the best of the bunch (as long as we're stuck in Windows; can't use Evolution). But seting up the IMAP folders requires a setting: IMAP Server Directory. Now I know where the server binary is - that's easy. But is it talking about mailbox location (/var/spool/mail) or where the IMAP folders usualy go (/home/username)? -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
