Hi Ricardo,

I just checked, and my email provider does offer IMAP, but, I'm not sure how 
this will help me.  What I need to do is save, or backup all my existing email 
messages that are currently located on my hard drive in Apple Mail.  Is there a 
way using IMAP to upload all these messages back to my provider's server?

Thanks,

Russell
