Subject: Missing IMAP Folders

Hello All --

I have 'Googled' this question to near death and still haven't found a 
resolution.  Hope you can help!

When I connect to my IMAP mail server I can check my mail, send mail, no 
problem.  My problem is that I do not see my IMAP mail folders, all I see 
is my local (INBOX, sent-mail, saved-messages, etc.. the default stuff).  
My question is.. how do I point Pine to my IMAP server for my list of 
folders?  Obvsiously I established many folders w/ Netscape Messenger over 
the years, such as peoples names where I would stash all their messages to 
me :).  BTw.. I'm sure those Folders are on the IMAP server for the simple 
fact, I can still telnet to our Mail server and see those folders.  

Thanks

Jeff

In Pine's default setup, it just shows your local folder
collection. In order to see IMAP-accessible folder collections or
change the specification of your local folder collection, you
need to go through the steps that I describe on my Power Pine
page in the section called

 Setting Local and Remote Folder Collections

which is here

 <http://www.ii.com/internet/messaging/pine/pc/#setFolders>

I just updated this section so I hope it's more clear than it
used to be. Feedback is welcome.

Thanks,
Nancy
