Why not use thunderbird (or any other IMAP talking client)? :-) Ionel On 24.09.19 00:14, Steve Litt via dovecot wrote:> Hi all, > > I could really use a file manager or browser to browse my Dovecot IMAP. > Ideally it would have hotkeys to move, copy, delete and send.

Alpine/Pine have implemented IMAP for decades; that was one of the first IMAP implementations to see widespread use. In what way does it appear to "not be ready for prime time"? -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
Not defending Thunderbird - but I don't understand your "taking hours to load my Dovecot IMAP". I suppose if you have sync enabled then the first time you connect to a large mailstore there would be an initial download. But...I always disable sync immediately upon setting up accounts in Thunderbird so that's never been an issue for me. Being unable to prevent downloads or utilize server-side searches is why some other clients have been disappointing for me - like EM Client and Mailbird.
