The tmail program is useful as an "injector" of email into your UW-imap server. For instance, fetchmail may be configured to use tmail as the mail delivery agent. The uw-imap package contains documentation of the suite. This documentation is placed under /usr/doc/uw-imap-2002c1/ and the file /usr/doc/Cygwin/uw-imap.README also contains some useful information. The University of Washington IMAP site is at http://www.washington.edu/imap/ Please send questions or comments to the cygwin mailing list at: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com. Prior to submitting a question, please check the included documentation, the UW-IMAP FAQ at http://www.washington.edu/imap/IMAP-FAQs/index.html, the Cygwin FAQ, the Cygwin User's Guide, and the mailing list archives. This program was built with SSL support enabled, but it also allows plaintext passwords when you configure your server not to use SSL. This is partially compliant to an IESG recommendation that plaintext passwords only be allowed when SSL is being used. Please refer to /usr/doc/uw-imap-2002c1/SSLBUILD for information about this.
