For instance, in your procmail script you should be using something like "dmail" (from the UofW server utilities) to deliver your mail to imap mail boxes. Then, you should *only* use nnimap to access them (nnfolder could have serious negative effects in the eyes of the imap server). -- "Ninjas aren't dangerous.
