That doesn't appear to be the issue. Apparently I was wrong in my earlier assessment. You cannot build imap-uw in the way that I want by putting CREATEPROTO=mbxproto in the make line. It works on OSX but not on FreeBSD. At this point, I think its just easier for me to build it by myself without the port, which I didn't want to do. It would be nice if the port had a build option to make mbx format mailboxes the default, since they are far better, but the port maintainer hasn't responded to any email from me so I guess its not going to happen. -- Mark Edwards
