nnimap and crossposting (Re: Moving from nnml to nnimap...)

[Ken Raeburn <raeburn@raeburn.org>]

The silence is deafening....  So, is no one actually using
cross-posting when splitting articles in an nnimap server?

My experimentation so far (playing with imtest, don't have the guest
account and nnimap config set up yet) seems to indicate that the marks
won't be propagated.  If this is the case, I think it would be a good
idea for the documentation to indicate this.

(Actually, seen and expire are the only marks I really care about, if
they're done any differently.)

I wrote, in November:
