A UW/IMAP Update

Category : Technology/IMAP2004Update.txt

I've built a new 2004 version of the UW/IMAP (POP3 and IMAP) binaries. And I took the opportunity to correct a mistake I made with the mail sub-directory path that led to problems like these (as excerpted from this page on the Squirrel Mail Wiki) :

"(1) Do NOT use the raw uw imapd that is installed by Postfix Enabler. This sets the imapd root directory on your server to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes, which is a folder that has special meaning for Mail.app. If you ever run Mail.app (ie Apple's Mail program) on your server it will put it's own stuff in that directory, imapd and Mail.app will fight about how it should be organized, and your life will be miserable."

With this new version, these problems should go away.

I should plan on releasing a new version of Postfix Enabler (1.1.10) soon (?) but I've got a series of courses that we're set on doing in a couple of weeks, so there's going to be a lot of things to do.
