I have a client who, in an attempt to upgrade the Thunderbird client, had been having some trouble connecting to the server. I responded with the connection settings needed and received a reply that the problem was that the acct. had been set up as POP. After receiving my mail, the acct. was deleted and recreated again, using IMAP, etc. Of course, now the mailbox is empty on the server. So, in the interest of due diligence, is there any way to retrieve those messages somewhere on the server? ATM, i believe the client's box is WinXP, so if anyone has any clues as to dealing with it from that end i'd like to hear them, also. No, i have no idea why upgrading the mail client required *any* changes to the user's setup. brian ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
