`vm-primary-inbox' can be an IMAP folder.  But I think you will be better
off using a recent pre-release of 8.2.0 for good IMAP support.

[VM] imap-fcc and gmail

2012-06-08 Thread emacs user
hi all,

This has been asked before, and I looked at the manual, but still could not 
figure it out:  adding 
imap-fcc: Sent
or 
imap-fcc: Sent Mail

the mail appears in gmail under a label such as 
[imap] Sent
rather then in the Sent mail label/ folder.

any hints?  

BTW, the manual on IMAP-FCC did not seem to say *how* to add this field 
automatically.  I eventually found mail-default-headers, but perhaps it would 
be good to mention it explicitly?

thanks, E

That works like a charm...
Now that my primary-inbox is an IMAP folder, what do I do with the
following variables:
 vm-crash-box (since I am not spooling, is there anything to crash?
   so should this be set to nil or is it automatically
   irrelevant)

 vm-spool-files (I don't want any spooling, so I presume this should
 be set to nil since my primary mail box is an IMAP folder)
