I'm using (testing really) it on RH 8.0 with all RH RPMS and it works fine.
Nothing is compiled by hand, everything is stock RH RPMS.

I mentioned to him to try that in a private email to him.  However, in my
case, I actually do use 'imap/notls' and it works fine.  Not sure if that
is because of a change I made elsewhere or what.

But is it even talking to the server?  Could be blocked by a firewall,
tcp wrappers, imap not running on the server, bad certificates, etc.
