Sure, I can have Exim or Procmail store mail there, but I want to keep everything inside my Cygwin directory structure, and my mail in my $HOME directory. But I am having two problems with UW imapd: 1: It's not "silent and invisible" enough. It won't disconnect from the terminal, say, like Exim, so you always have that useless console window hanging about. It therefore fails requirement B. 2: I still haven't been able to make it work. Not too easy. Way to pass requirement A! :-) -- Luciano ES Santos, SP - Brasil <-quote-> ************************************************** Cliff Hones wrote on 17 abr 2003: > OT for Cygwin, but the Mercury mail system for Windows > is freely available and includes an IMAP server. > (see www.pmail.com). -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
