The biggest problem is configuration. My ideal case would be a imap
server that allows me to specify the location in which I want to place
folders. The UofW software opens every file in your home directory
looking for folders? That's the impression I got by trying to run it
once and finally hitting C-g 10 minutes later. Running it against a
fake user on my linux box with nothing in it's home directory is much
better...
>From my glances at the Cyrus software, it didn't have this option
either (and since it was designed for use on systems where the users
didn't have log-in shells, I'm assume it does something equally as
stupid).
Actually, I want procmail to deliver mail into my imap folders, but I
think this is a pipe-dream at this point... sigh...

I'd love to, but I'm swamped with more projects than I can even count...
