If you do an imap search on a word with nonascii utf8 characters in it, = it works on some servers and not others. We never figured out why. This could be relevant since Erwin speaks French, and will want to use = accented letters. The current imap interface doesn't scale well at all. It's fine for a couple hundred messages per folder, but what if you = have thousands. This is just a thought, and perhaps not high priority. I'll use a junk folder as example. When you call up junk you get the last (most recent) 50 emails, or = whatever your fetch limit is. But how to go back through the thousands? junk- The previous 50 emails. Sounds simple but there is a catch. If you deleted or moved 10 emails during your first pass, and you go = back to -100, you'll miss 10 emails in the gap. So we have to be careful. junk--- Back 3 groups. junk-30 back 30 groups. junk+7, you see. junk^ junk$ first and last groups. Just a thought. I never have more than 100 emails in a folder so = doesn't matter to me. Karl Dahlke --nextpart-eb-203507--
