Hi Again, Well a little bit more reading and I have solved my b. problem - rather than playing around with sendmail - oh for a GUI interface to sendmail!!!! - I switched to the postfix MTA and made the simple change - all new e-mail is delivered to the Cyrus IMAP system. My question is now, how do I convert outstanding e-mail in /var/spool/mail?
