I guess I was trying to do some message management issues that IMAP itself is not capable of doing maybe. What I was actually looking for in retrospect, was that I wanted to setup rule based filtering so that when a message arrives inbound, the rule-based filters would route the messages to the proper in-house email server and yet intermally to the email server in particular to deliver the message to the proper user defined email folders using the IMAP structure. As I have it right now, I have exchange as my main central email repository and I have to have at least one of my Outlook email clients open (i.e. running) so that when it pop's messages (IMAP or POP) from a remote email server, the user-defined rules examines the message headers and moves the message(s) to the user defined email folders for better management/organization of thousands of messages received inbound. Is there something like this available for Fedora (linux) so that I can be weaned away from depending solely on Exchange? Anyone care to comment? Kind regards, Dan
