Perhaps so. Then again, some e-mail clients don't implement IMAP support well, and Imapproxy caches the connection-related data. We used it to allow external access to an internal IMAP server (with proper authentication) and it did a good job. A regular proxy would likely have worked, but we found the performance benefit helpful to the slower line speeds of road warriors. -- Gary Funck
