Hi Max
There's a bug in the current stable Rebol release with Imap that has been fixed in the
betas. This bug prevents you opening up a mailbox twice in the same session.
Over the last 40,000+ mail list messages, I count only 3 people interested in IMAP :(
Maarten claims to have once got the list of mailboxes once but was not able to repeat
that.
Basically, my understanding is that Holger implemented as much of IMAP so that it had
POP functionality. Everything else is not there.
Having said that, you should be able to use Rebol to do what you want but not using the
IMAP protocol. I recently had to rename some folders etc, and was able to telnet into
my IMAP server to do this.
Hope that helps.
