OT - IMAP mail server with trash folder?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The courier webmail server does have a trash folder out of the box. I
use the pop3 portion of it for getting my mail off my server, but I do
seem to recall that using imap does give you that same trash folder
like it does in webmail.
