Continuing the unrelated thread:
Indeed one of the worst things are the ugly imap server errors which 
look scary to the end-user.
It would be really nice if squirrelmail could handle those imap errors 
in a better way - ie try to guess why they happened, silently do the 
necessary to correct them (ie see above) or at least tell the user what 
he could try doing to get past the problem or understand the nature of 
the problem. Admin editable messages would be nice - then you could 
include things like the contact details for the helpdesk.
