I'm presuming you're talking about horde-imp. (seems like there's a |
| 16 |
truckload of horde packages in portage) |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Horde is, from my limited viewpoint, on looking at it's website, seems |
| 19 |
to be mainly a web-based email client. I don't like web-based clients |
| 20 |
too much. Prefer something like Evo(which I need for exchange connection |
| 21 |
functionality. I know, evil, but still...) |

Presume this means |
| 29 |
user1@×××××××.com |
| 30 |
user100@×××××××.com |
| 31 |
etc.. |
| 32 |

Add aliases? Huh? I don't understand, or perhaps you don't understand |
| 36 |
how plus addressing works? With Cyrus+postfix(and sendmail) plus address |
| 37 |
is just like |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
INBOX |
| 40 |
--fedora |
| 41 |
--gentoo |
| 42 |
--gentoo-server |
| 43 |
--misc |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
then I have an email |
| 46 |
user1+fedora@×××××××.com |
| 47 |
user1+gentoo-server@×××××××.com |
| 48 |
user1+misc@×××××××.com |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
and mails will miraculously appear sorted in each respective folder |
| 51 |
without any need for me to do any filters on the client side. (though it |
| 52 |
will add headache for the user, me, to rememeber all of those emails. |
| 53 |
Imagine if I have/am subscribed to 100 mail lists etc. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
The only pre-requisite that's needed is for the folder in question be |
| 56 |
1. Be all in lower-case (this is due to either postfix/cyrus limitation |
| 57 |
in case sensitive-ness) |
| 58 |
2. have the "anyone p" flag |

BUlletion boards? You mean shared folders? (Haven't played with that |
| 65 |
yet. Will be looked at) |
