Hmm. This is a great idea. However, my mail sources are both POP3 - what I want is a program which will get all my POP3 mail and pass it on to the IMAP server. Is this what fetchmail does, or is that overkill? Will fetchmail pass the mail from POP3 to the IMAP server? Thanks a million for your advice.
