Title: Email rules
Post by: Des Dougan on September 19, 2001, 10:52:40 AM

I suspect I know thw answer to this already, but here goes...

Using Outlook Express with e-smith's IMAP email, the Rules options do not show the IMAP folders. Am I correct in assuming this is because the mail is held on the server, and that procmail would need to be used instead?

If this is the case, can any procmail guru comment on its ease of use for non-technical users?

Thanks,

Des Dougan
