imap DON'T DELETE THIS MESSAGE question

2006-10-15 Thread David Banning
I am using imap-uw and so I am familiar with the 
DON'T DELETE THIS MESSAGE email which stays on the server. 

In my case, I read my mail -on- the server so I see this email all the
time. Since I use imap as well, deleting it only causes it to come back,
I observe.

I find this annoying, so my question is whether -all- imap servers
in the ports have this message that appears. If not, maybe I'll
install another. Otherwise I will learn to live with it.

No all IMAP servers don't have this message.

We've been using courier-imap for about six years, and it uses
Maildir stores (one file per message) and doesn't need that.

Are you also aware you can compile at least qpopper with
--enable-uw-kludge in the CONFIGURE_ARGS? That way you can use POP3 and
IMAP together without mutual interference.

I did that with only the UW code for years until I switched to
dovecot. Dovecot has its own little peculiarity that upsets the
dumb old mail program, at least over on that GPLed OS. I live
with dovecot these days because it is simple and more or less
dumb to use for my specific needs. YMMV, of course.
