Maildir

[Justin Bennett]

Thanks guys, What I really need is to do subdirectories on folders, I'm 
using procmail right now so it wouldn't be much of an issue I don't 
believe. Just need an IMAP sever that will do it. Courier I've heard 
good things, can you get RPM versions? Just makes it easier to keep it 
updated.  Also I assume I will have enourmous greif trying to convert 
current MBOX based inboxes and imap folders to maildir format. Yeah the 
procmail info would be great.

Thanks
Justin
