I am still having folder problems.
Here is IMP's error:
The folder "Business" was not created. This is what the server 
said: CREATE failed: Can't create mailbox node 
/home/budgee/mbox: File exists
Does that mean that I need to change to maildir?
I have the standard implementation of Debain UW IMAP on the 
mail server, the same machine as IMP. When I use an IMAP client 
like Pegasus Mail, it checks all the files in my homedir, and lists 
them in with the mail folder (The mboc file).  
I think I need to become a little more thorough in my understanding 
of mail, mbox, maildir etc. in general, but does this sound like 
anything in particular is wrong. What is the advantage of a single 
mbox file over a maildir?
Thanks
