Yes, sorry to leave that out.

If imp connects but doesnt log in then that means (most likely) that the
imapd server is having problems, I think.

mtest:
{gateway.aestheticempire.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert/user=\"pdman\"}INBOX
says no cert is installed, which is true.

mtest:
{gateway.aestheticempire.com:143/imap/notls/user=\"pdman\"}INBOX
gives me this:
OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS AUTH=LOGIN]

What does NO AUTHENTICATE LOGIN mean?
I would hope that LOGIN-REFERRALS means to look in the local passwd/shadow
file.

Thanks again for all the help!
