I must have missed this question the first time around, but I have had Pine, IMP, imapd AND Maildir all working together for over a year. With thousands of users each day. It can be done. It's a very flexible setup. Dunno if imapd is the best choice, but it worked for what I needed it to do. -- And you don't seem to understand A shame, you seemed an honest man And all those fears you hold so dear Will turn to whisper in your ear
