Hi Lawrence
Thanks for this. I'd pretty much come to the same conclusion myself, but
was kinda hoping that there'd be a better way!
I think I'm going to have to play with a few methods.
Incidentally, can anyone give me some hints on how things are read from
the imapd.conf file? I'd like to include some of my own config options in
it for the notify routines I'm working on.
I've played with config.c, but I can't see how it gets included.
Thanks again
Steve
