I heard that some people find way around for "broken" imap clients (which is
almost every single imap client for courier imapd) but I dont know what is
it exactly and i'm looking on my own to resolve that situation, if you'll
find it please let me know, thanks.

Why isn't it supported? It means that people using Outlook Express
IMAP
client cannot save their drafts into the server.
Dunno about other imapservers, but courier-imap doesn't seem to mind
that you configure OE5 to store Send and Drafts on the mailserver:
Tools->Accounts->Mail->Properties->IMAP->Store special folders on
server.
However, OE then behaves weird. Sent messages pop up as expected in
folder Sent Items (after hitting F5), but drafted mails, saved with
File->Save doesn't; that is, the folder gets highlighted when
Synchronize'ing, showing #of drafts, but clicking the folder removes the
highlight and reveals 'There are no items in this view', though all
folders have been marked for synchronization.
I find it no easier to configure Netscape (4.77) for such folders...
Seems OE5 will easily allow Sent and Draft folder on the imapserver, but
only Sent works.
Actually, if I configure OE5 to store Drafts on the imapmailserver,
drafts doesn't seem to be stored in either Drafts on Localmail or in
Drafts on the imapserver, when I choose File->Save .
Anybody gotten any further?
