Re: [webmin-l] usermin sent mail

[Caleb F. <cal...@gm...>]

Thanks for your quick response.

I wasn't actually clear about the situation. I'm using IMAP and trying 
to save to the .Sent as individual messages similar to how a mail client 
would. Isn't the lock file only necessary for mbox?

I did try your suggestions, but get the same error message. I feel like 
I'm missing something fundamental.

Thanks for your time!
