Subject: Re: UNIX Pine reading mail on NT based NS Mail 2.01 via IMAP

Oops...in my post I said that UNIX Pine version 3.95 gave the same
results as the other versions but it really gives the following:

In the "Folders List" after trying to add a new folder with
   {darkwing.csun.edu/user=marc.montemorra}INBOX
I get "[rsh to IMAP server timed out]" and then
   HOST: darkwing.csun.edu  USER: marc.montemorra  ENTER PASSWORD:
I enter my password and then get 
   [CREATE failed: Can't create mailbox INBOX: mailbox already exists]

What am I doing wrong?  Any help would be appreciated.  Please post
responses to the group and to my email.  aTdHvAaNnKcSe

It's December. 'Nuff said.

Add an explicit port number (147 I think):

{darkwing.csun.edu:147/user=marc.montemorra}inbox

Greetings,

Close... the standard port number for an IMAP server is actually 143,
not 147.

Cheers,
