I've recently switched to using a Cyrus IMAP server for mail, and can't
figure out how to specify the path to mail folders on the server. With
pine, the format seems to be {imapserver}INBOX.[] (this points at what
pine calls a "folder collection) and with netscape the format seems to
be {imapserver}INBOX. but neither of these seems to work with mutt
(1.0-pre1, RH linux 6.0, kernel 2.2.5-22). I can get my mail fine with
set spoolfile="{imapserver}INBOX" in my .muttrc, but can't seem to get
to any of my mail "folders" The mutt documentation suggests:
"If you want to access another mail folder at the IMAP server, you
should use {imapserver}path/to/folder where path/to/folder is the path
of the folder you want to access relative to your home directory."
But on an IMAP server the mail boxes don't live in one's home directory.
Am I attempting to do something that mutt can not yet do? Perhaps mutt
doesn't know about what pine calls a "folder collection?" I know the
documentation suggests using fetchmail for IMAP, but that only solves
the problem of reading incoming mail, not also saving messages to other
folders on the server.
Thanks,
Tom Shay
