With imap-2001a-18 from RedHat 9 and OutLook the user can see every
file within their user directory. So there's not much to do about it.
The best shot might be to setup a "mail" directory in which all valid
mail folders live. Then pray.
If somebody does know how to keep IMAP from serving specific files or
all but the contents of a specific directory I'd like to know. Most
"tricks" I can think of make mere "ugly" too weak a term to apply.
For Loren and me this is no big deal. For most user type people who
have a little curiosity they'll soon be trying to read their Bayes
database as an email with nothing to stop them. This is a rather
severe Washington.edu IMAP malfeature.
