We use OE and Outlook 2000 on all of our client machines accessing
accounts
via IMAP and have not really had "trouble" per se. Actually OE seems to
require switching back and forth between folders so that when you end back
at the inbox for a given account, you actually find if you have new mail
or
not. So, personally, I am (along with other users of my site) not
experiencing problems with using Outlook 2000. (I migrated from Exchange
at
my old job to using qmail/vmailmgr/courier-imap and find that things run
much quicker/more stable, even with sticking with the MS OE/Outlook
clients
on the client side.)
In Outlook-Express you need to adjust the Synchronisation Setting for the
appropriate mailbox. I have found that setting it to "New Messages Only"
seems to work best with Courier-IMAP and "Headers Only" for UW-IMAP.
You may want to enable the "IDLE" capability in courier-imap-1.3.5 but be
warned that if you want to move mail from one IMAP-Server to a Courier-IMAP
server you will see problems however moving messages from one folder to
another in your account with Courier-IMAP will not present any problems.
More testing needs to be performed to see what does and doesn't work.
Cheers,
Larry.
