The imap clients are read write, the only time this becomes a problem is when the imap client moves a message from new to cur. Sup will not be able to find the message until the next time it polls (but this is mostly seamless, if I use the imap client I just poll and refresh in sup). This does imply that sup must be polling cur as well as new. Similarly, sup-sync-back is not needed because messages are synced back to the maildir immediately. _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list sup-talk@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk
