Hi Lars, Unfortunately, I haven't found any solution yet; and what's worse - didn't receive any help from debian-user; I sent 2 messages about the problem, but a) nobody cares, or b) nobody has this problem. I tried to found the problem in the php3 code but I'm not experienced with it. However, I found an interesting thing trying to understand the imapd server: I telnet'd to the imap server port 143 and tried to issue some commands to see the results. Well, I was able to login, select Inbox, select other mailbox file in the user directory, but when I issued a create command, I had the following result: -------------------------------------------------------- mario <linux1> ~$ telnet curiango.ipen.br 143 Trying 192.168.9.1... Connected to curiango.ipen.br. Escape character is '^]'. * OK curiango.ipen.br IMAP4rev1 v12.264 server ready abcd login menezes Password abcd OK LOGIN completed * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4REV1 NAMESPACE IDLE SCAN SORT MAILBOX-REFERRALS LOGIN-REFERRALS AUTH=LOGIN THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT abcd OK CAPABILITY completed abcd select ~menezes/mail/sent-mail * 1 EXISTS * 0 RECENT * OK [UIDVALIDITY 948897341] UID validity status * OK [UIDNEXT 2] Predicted next UID * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Draft \Seen) * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\* \Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Draft \Seen)] Permanent flags abcd OK [READ-WRITE] SELECT completed abcd create ~menezes/mail/zope abcd NO CREATE failed: Can't create mailbox node /home/menezes/mbox: File exists abcd create "zope" abcd NO CREATE failed: Can't create mailbox node /home/menezes/mbox: File exists ------------------------------------------------------ Sorry for the long lines! I tried do not wrap to maintain the original output. Look that even when I try to create a mailbox named "zope", the imapd server try to create a "mbox" mailbox, that already exists. So I'm lost here: I'm not sure about the syntax of the command; I just tried to follow the RFC (it's a hard thing); some commands worked, others no. Could somebody more experienced with this look at the above lines and give me an insight if this is a bug or a mistake I've made, please? Could the maintainer take a close look at a IMP and try to reproduce this behavior or point to a solution, please? I would like to have some feedback about this.
