Hi all,

Since rolling out DBMail, I've noticed two possible bugs. These bugs may simply be limited to when Outlook Express is used as the client, but I've noticed similar behaviour to point 1 in Mozilla Mail 1.3

1. Often, the mail client (OE or Mozilla Mail) will report that new mail is in one's Inbox. However, the messages will not be pulled down, regardless of what is tried (synchronising messages and/or headers, restarting the client, clearing the local message cache, restarting dbmail-imapd, changing status flags, restarting the mail client etc). 2. In OE, many messages have their Sender name surrounded by double quotes (inverted commas to any other Australians who went through primary school in the mid-late eighties). This is mostly cosmetic, but it does break sorting on the client side, making the finding of messages just a bit more difficult.

If anyone wants to point me to the appropriate sections in the source tree, I'll have a go at fixing these myself (They drill C into us real good at uni!). Of course, I'll submit patches if successful.
