I understood from the documentation supplied with courierimap that netscape messenger, and to some extent pine improperly implemented imap4rev1 and therefore required the --enable-workarounds... configure option.

I did not enable the workarounds and I am attempting to use MS Outlook 2000, and I consistently get the error "Could not fetch new headers in the inbox... An unknown error has occurred...."

Many people use Outlook without any problems.

Your problem is that you are not receiving an informative error message. Without knowing exactly what the problem is, very little can be done on the server side.
