 Yes, but there are looooots of things that unable me to change to
IMP 3.1. Trust me, I would change If I could (I use myself IMP 3.1
at home). But somebody over me said "NO MIGRATIONS" and I can't 
migrate :( This is due to:

 - I've added code.
 - I've removed code.
 - I've added lots of limitations:  
   - Attachment limitations by user
   - Internet sending limitations (an LDAP attribute defines which
     users can or cannot send messages out of the intranet domain,
     i.e., to Internet accounts).
   - Internet receiving limitations.
   - Attach showing (certain users can only see PDF attachs, and 
     only from a given list of senders)
   - etc etc etc
 - I've changed the layout (remove frames, reorganized code,
   changed all the appearance, integrated into another web-application
   frames ...).

 I've done more than 1 year of changes and I can't migrate it to
 IMP 3.1 (orders :( ).

 Yes, I hope I can fix the problem finally in the 2.2.x installation
I have. I'll browse the cvs tree but if anyone thinks he has an idea
or solution to force the correct "charset" in Saved Mail folder, it
would be very appreciated.

 CU and a happy new year :)
