It turns out that I had to make clean on both cclient and imap-uw, build cclient with "-D WITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT", install it and then do the same with imap-uw. Oh, and it helps to spell "PLAINTEXT" correctly. "PLAIMTEXT" doesn't have the same effect. Thanks for the pointer to Dovecot - I'll check it out. Sorry about the mostly-OT chatter. -Jason ----- --- There are no ABSOLUTE STATEMENTS I'm very probably wrong. --- "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits." - Albert Einstein
