If possible, configure your mail system so that all mailboxes are contained in a subdirectory, not your home directory. The IMAP server is having to figure out what is mail and what isn't amongst all the stuff you have saved in your home directory. If you put all your boxes in a subdirectory (say, ~/mail), then there's a lot less to sort through, and it's all mailboxes anyway. I didn't see Jonathan's message, but that sounds to me like what he may have been talking about. I'm not familiar with the Qube, so I don't know if that's feasible. -- Chris Hilts [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Visual Studio.NET comprehensive development tool, built to increase your productivity.
