IMAP Questions
« on: May 14, 2001, 01:37:08 AM »
Question #1:

I am having trouble creating IMAP folders. If I use Outlook Express to automatically do it, it creates and uses the folder just fine. However, if I switch to IMP, it does not see the folder that was just created.

If I create a folder using IMP, it creastes and uses it just fine. If I switch to OE, it finds the new folder but is unable to access it. I see that the folders are created in different directories in my user directory. How do I get it all to work together.

Question #2:

I have looked all over and can't seem to find the answer for this: How do I create an IMAP folder that is accessible by more than one person? I want to be able to have threaded discussions among a group of people.

Thanks for your help,
Phil

Visit this link:  http://www.e-smith.org/cgi-bin/contrib.cgi for my 'How to change IMP (Webmail) folder locations', so Outlook and Webmail happily work together.
