*sometimes* courier-imap sticks to the RFC (which is their right) so much that known broken mailers like some mail from AOL, which do not end with the correct trailing CRLF, return NO message. Usually the text version in MIME Part 1 is fine but if the HTML in MIME part 2 does not end correctly, you get nothing. There are other broken mailers. Maybe a 5% thing.

We're actually considering for this upcoming release:
- adding in cyrus-imap
- taking out uw-imap
Opinions?
Uh, yeah. :)
The mbox sucks, Maildir rules and uw-imap is a dog.
Anything that supports Maildir is plus in my book. I've always been a fan of courier-imap.
