Hi,
This is certainly doable using the copy command in IMAP, though you
would be limmited on what the filtering system gives you in the GUI.
I don't believe for example that Outlook lets you do this.

Andrew,
That's interesting. Do you know if it is possible to filter into
the folders on the server and retain a copy in the inbox simultaneously?
I should imagine that this is quite doable, but you've obviously got the
facts on this.
Tink.

Hi,
IMAP filtering client side is uggly anyway because of the time taken in
finding out which messages are on the server, then having to move the
messages to the different folders. You would have a long period of not
being able to interact with the folders on the server, whilst the client
was moving mail around in folders. Whenever I use IMAP, I get a program
server side to do the filtering for me, so when I come into my Inbox, i
have the mail all ready and waiting. This is done via Procmail on Unix
or through Exchange (which is what we use now).
If your host has a Webmail program have you tried putting filters in
that?
Some versions of Horde can be configured to manipulate Procmail filters
directly.
having said this, however, it still may be possible to filter into other
folders IMAP client side using OE, its just that I don't like the idea
of it, so have never done it.
Thanks.
Andrew.

Andrew,
My mistake, it's not that OE doesn't support IMAP, but rather
that you can't filter emails from an IMAP account into different folders
on the server. At least, I believe this is the case, if I'm wrong, I'd
be delighted to find out.

Hi,
For ages Outlook Express was better at supporting IMAP than Outlook was.
OE allows for several IMAP accounts under one identity, each of them
showing up as its own mailbox. You also have local folders, and you can
drag and drop messages from one mailbox into another. Only Outlook 2003
has really improved on this situation - any earlier version of Outlook
won't work, but OE version 6 will work fine.
Thanks.
Andrew.

Afternoon,
Does anyone have any recommendations on email applications that
are Jaws friendly and which are capable of handling an IMAP email
account?
I know that Outlook meets both these criteria, but my work email
is using Outlook and for various reasons which I won't go into, I need
to keep work and personal email in separate applications.
Outlook Express appears not to support IMAP accounts, so I'm
left wondering about Eudora or any other program people have used
successfully.
Thanks,
Tink.
