Mircea, Thank you! I have applied both patches below and have tested that Windows versions of Outlook 2000 and Thunderbird 0.7.3 are now reading messages properly from the server. And of course the Linux apps and Squirrelmail still work as well.
Nice to see these patches are keeping pace with new versions of XMail and Courier-IMAP. Thanks again. David >> On Mon, 6 Sep 2004, David Broderick wrote: >> >>> 1.
