Subject: [9fans] UPAS, IMAP, and SMTP
Date: Sun,  8 Feb 2009 16:35:00 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4e6ca2050902081635rc56e75fp7c45aa0799a048df@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Using upas/fs -f /imaps/imap.gmail.com I can access my GMail
Inbox. The mail structure is posted in /mail/fs/mbox
However, there may be local mail as well as other labels (i.e., folders)
in GMail that I would want to access -- it seems that specifying
a new folder at GMail, i.e.,
  upas -f /imaps/imap.gmail.com/user@mail.example.com/label
replaces the /mail/fs/mbox structure with the mail at this new place.
Is there any way to have these co-exist -- i.e., /mail/fs/mbox for
the original, and /mail/fs/label for subsequent labels/folders I want
to access?

Next, SMTP: would someone sending mail through GMail be kind
enough to show me their /mail/lib/^(rewrite qmail remotemail) please?
Part of the problem I'm facing in setup is with the From: header --
in remotemail (or somewhere) I need to specify my GMail account name
for smtp to use, and then I need to specify, in my mail, the address
that the mail should actually go as (since I use various names and these
two are different).
