Hi


Does imp store popped messages for a user somewhere locally ?
Or should he pop all his mail everytime ?

Or, a similar question: 

Does imp use local mail'folders' when using POP3 ?
Does it write things to $HOME/mail/blahbox locally ?

When using IMAP, sent_mail en drafts are stored on
the _remote_ server, am i right ? It's IMAP managing
the mail'folders' on the remote side.
POP3 doesn't have that facility (does it ?). In order
to use sent_mail,drafts and mailboxes, imp should
su to the user and write things in his homedir.
I imagine. Does it do that ?

thanks for your help,
still being very confused :-) ,

It does not, and will not. Use IMAP if you want folders.

Subject: server name

I tried to setup imp 2.3.7 with SSL. I use name based virtual hosting. I have a 
domain www.xyz.com, and imp is on mail.xyz.com. Whenever I go to 
https://mail.xyz.com, the SSL certificate box (ok, I have not signed it from 
e.g. Verisign) pops up, and after that another SSL certificate box - and the 
site name does not match...

the problem lies in horde/lib/Horde.php in function "url". In this function 
$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SERVER_NAME'] is used, and that returns "www.xyz.com" 
instead of "mail.xyz.com". I "hacked" the $server variable, but is there a way 
to make it right, or is it an undocumented feature?

thanks!
