Well I have finally got a recent version of mutt configured and built here. It's version 0.96.6i. How do I find out what all the 'clever' things I can now do with IMAP4 mailboxes are? I have a couple of initial observations:- 1 - It asks for my IMAP4 password again when I open an IMAP folder even though the password is in my .muttrc. Has the .muttrc format changed for this? 2 - When it asked for my password it was for [EMAIL PROTECTED]@mailandnews.co.uk which is not my user name at mailandnews.co.uk! :-) 3 - Why does it re-read the IMAP folder *every* time I do something? This makes it nearly unusable except when the internet is at its very best and fastest. It also reports that the folder has been externally modified every time I do something. -- Chris Green ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.isbd.co.uk/
