Hi all --

After using Eudora for years, it's time for a change.  TB seems like a
very flexible email client and seems well suited to my needs if I can
get past this one hurdle.

I have been struggling to get it to work with an imap server I run on
a linux box at home.  My goal is to be able to access the same
mailboxes and message base from my NT machine at home and from my W98
machine at work.  I'd like to get incoming messages via several POP3
accounts and filter them to various imap mailboxes based on headers.

The imap message base currently contains about 16000 messages in 30
mailboxes. I'd like TB to keep a local cache of some link (headers,
subject lines, etc) to the mailboxes so I can see the contents of the
mailboxes but don't have to duplicate the entire message base locally.

Maybe there is another way to accomplish what I am trying to do.  If
so, please tell me.  I'm not looking to re-invent the wheel.

I looked through the archives of this list but didn't find what seemed
like a satisfactory answer.

I tried message dispatcher, and it seems to view the contents of
mailboxes on the imap server (after a rather lengthy download period),
but is there a way to tell TB to save a local cache of the header
information? After closing message dispatcher, the mailboxes don't
show up in the folder view in the main TB window either.  Next time I
open the same mailbox with message dispatcher, it downloads the
headers again.

Eudora 5 seems to handle the mailbox caching but it crashes every time
it filters mail from a POP3 to an imap mailbox.  Totally useless.

I'm open to any suggestions...

TIA,

Karl Cunningham
