Hi,
I'd discovered the same problems when I used OL 2007 - but today I saw the
same problem with OL 2003. So I'd extended my search to other versions of
Outlook - and I've found similar problems since OL2003 reported in 2005...
It seems that Microsoft issn't really interested in bugfixing IMAP problems
:-(
Have you found a work around for this problem (without changing the mail
client) ?
Somebody else here who can help ?
Thanks in advance...
