Hi After some debate on this list I have been able to successfully implement an IMAP solution for XMail. After some discussion I moved away from Courier IMAP to a application named Dovecot.
I will be releasing some docs and a script to convert the xmail password file to one that is usable by dovecot etc. I am in the process of doing some testing etc and making sure there are no funnies, but so far its working like a charm. As XMail leaves the terminating <CRLF> tags on each line for messages written do disk instead of only using them for the transport which is an RFC requirement, Courier expects to read Unix formatted messages from the maildir, ie messages terminating with just <LF>. Dovecot is the only IMAP server I have been able to use that will actually read both formats. I wont go in to much more detail, but basically if you want to run IMAP successfully with XMail, you will need to use Dovecot... well at least on the Unix platform. Cheers.
