Worthwhile I think. I have (partly) converted to IMAP a while ago. I do the following: (1) `G m' to create the new nnimap group. (2) `G e' to edit the select method from (nnimap "") to "nnimap:". (I think this happens automatically in the newest nnimap.) (3) Use `B c' to copy all articles from nnml group to nnimap group. (4) Check that articles arrived in nnimap group. (5) Delete nnml group if check was successful. It's quite a few keys to press but I didn't try to make it more automatic. kai -- This gubblick contains many nonsklarkish English flutzpahs, but the overall pluggandisp can be glorked from context. -- David Moser
