stephan@phoenix2:~$ ls -ld Maildir/

hola. There you go. I will probably have to enable write 
permissions...err...globally? Or should I add my www-data user to the group 
"stephan"? I guess the "IMP process" runs with the same ID as the apache, right? 
Or is it the IMAP Server process ID I should be looking for? Damn, I hate it 
when I don't know what a program does...even with source. :-/

Cool - now I know that I even have a "Trash" folder - I wouldn't know where this 
was coming from, but anyhow. I guess I am glad I have one. :-)

Cheers,
Stephan
