Re: [Neomail-users] Re: NeoMail-users quest ==> HOW TO CAPTURE SENT MAIL ????

[Jonathan M. <jm...@be...>]

My personal opinion is to dump POP3 and use IMAP which allows for multiple 
folders.  In Pine compatibility mode you can share folders between Neomail 
and IMAP (Outlook Express is popular) and have had 0 complaints from my 
users.

This should be a workable solution around the Move_Back_to_INBOX 
"limitation".
