Outlook 2k crashes when told to use this server. :( > courier-imap 0.31-1 I haven't tried it much, really, because it doesn't support /var/spool/mail and I don't see why I should convert to Maildirs. > The choice (according to "apt-get -s install pop3-server") of available > pop3 servers is: > cucipop 1.31-13 > qpopper 2.53-5 I use qpopper, which is quite install & forget, but then, you might need something more elaborate. > ipopd 4.7c-1 > > Does anyone have any preferences, suggestions or comments regarding > these packages.

I've got to add a question of my own here: Is there an imap server that can store mails and directories in a directory and gets along with Outlook? (./configure --enable-endure-o2k) As I said, I tried (UW) imap, which needs a '/' added to a dir name if it should contain other dirs. Outlook doesn't know this, it seems, so any recursive copying will fail. Thanks Christian
