I'm currently running 1.2.10 on a production site and eagerly looking forward to the
1.4 release.  I decided to go ahead and d/l today's cvs and give it a shot against
our IMAP server to see how things look.  In general 1.4 looks good, some things have
been cleaned up and it seems a bit more responsive (always a good thing).  I do want
to report 2 bugs or at least problems that I'm having though.  First some
information on my setup:

Mercury IMAP Server 3.32 on Win2k Pro box
Redhat 7.3 webserver with PHP 4.2.3

Here's what's happening:

1.  The left folder list says the inbox is always empty regardless of how many read
or unread emails (0/0) there are.  Opening the folder in the right window shows all
the emails.  All other folders show the correct amount of read and unread emails in
the left frame.

2.  Mercury is one of those IMAP servers that doesn't understand the concept of
having folders and emails in the same folder.  A folder can either contain
subfolders or emails but not both.  I enabled the "Show 'Contain Sub.' Option" but
the left frame still wants to check my folders containing folders for the # of
emails in them.  Next to each folder containing folders I get a Not Available
message.

3.  Certain plugins seem to not find the SMPATH properly.  Yes these plugins were
written for 1.2.x and I understand the architecture for plugins has changed in 1.4
however, this seems like a relatively easily fixed problem.  The error returned is:

Fatal error: Failed opening required 'SM_PATHfunctions/global.php'
(include_path='.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/bin') in
/var/www/mail/beta/functions/prefs.php on line 14

looks to me like SM_PATH is meant to be a variable and instead is getting read as
part of the string.

I apologize if any/all of these bugs are known issues however I do keep an eye on
the mailing list and haven't seen these come up.  Thanks again for all your help and
for what looks to be a wonderful 1.4 release!
