Something came up that Confounded problems in my move from UW-imap to dovecot. I found a problem with the new icedove update in Debian lenny when moving from 1.5.0.13+1.5.0.14b.dfsg1-0etch1 to 2.0.0.9-3 that could look like a dovecot issue. Icedove runs for a while but eventually quits updating the displayed email, yet appears to be working and busy trying to get messages from the server. I think it is related to message filters, but not sure. The fix was to move .mozilla-thundrebird somewhere and restart icedove and create a new profile. There may be a more elegant fix. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt EMail Karl at xtronics.com Transtronics, Inc.

That seems like it corrupted its state in a way that it surely should not have! -- Asheesh. -- Interchangeable parts won't.
