The problem is that I get to sync with INBOX, but I can't get to sync with
the other files...

So should I comment out the "mail_location = /var/mail/%u" line?
Read the wiki I posted. You need to prepend it with what type of mail storage
format you are using like mail_location = mbox:/var/mail/%u or

Hi Scott -
How would I tell? I built the box from scratch and set up CentOS Linux
