A while ago I wrote an IMAP client interface in PERL for a project I was
working on. At the time I looked at Net::IMAP, Mail::IMAPClient and
Mail::Cclient, but they all had problems that made them annoying in some way
(broken literals in envelopes, non-structured bodystructure responses, etc).

Auxprop is a way better way to go than to use saslauthd, especially for

don't call a hammer a piece of garbage because it's not a screwdriver...

Further investigation showed that sendmail's queue was huge due to an over

In order the patch to function, the autocreatequota option at the
imapd.conf file must have a non zero value. Then, when the mailbox is
created, the autocreatequota value is set as the mailbox's initial quota.
If the autocreatequota option is zero, then the patch disables itself.
