[Sheflug] IMAP2bis

[José Luis Gómez Dans <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
	T'other half is finally convereted to the joys of TeX and so on.
Now, everything seemed fine, but for the fact that I had completely
forgotten about e-mail. So I dug up kmail, and set up her IMAP account.
Only problem is that the IMAP account runs on imap2bis (which has been
deprecated for about 10 years now), which is not (and will not) be
supported by the kmail group. Bugger. It seems fetchmail can do the job,
but I couldn't be bothered to configure fetchmail through procmail and
so on (and I don't see a point for this. Isn't IMAP suppossed to keep
all folders on the server-kind of thing? fetchmail seems ill-suited for
this task).

	So my question is: what's the best way to go? I'd really like to
get hold of a nice graphical MUA (has to bee graphical, I'm afraid) to
emulate the deeds of Simeon on Windows (which is the one being used at
the moment).

	Any help, welcomed (and no, there's no chance of updating the
server to IMAP4)
	José
