Great! now it works. Thank you very much; you answered in the exact
moment, otherwise frustration would have been too great :-)
One last thing (I hope): when I'm reading the mail on my imap server
with nedmail, and I want to save a message, I get

: 3 w /tmp/3
!message disappeared

and nothing gets written. Do you have any idea what's causing this?
and even better, how to solve it :-)
