Have done.  When initially logging in, Messages show (using  
horde/imp).  After reading first message I get a no messages message.   
This is in my logfiles for each user:

Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): mbox:  
data=/home/someuser/:INBOX=/var/mail/someuser
Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): mbox:  
root=/home/someuser, index=/home/someuser, inbox=/var/mail/someuser
Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser):  
open(/var/mail/.temp.mail.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.23157.22aab3df3f835fed)  
failed: Permission denied
Nov 26 09:28:10 mail dovecot: IMAP(someuser): file_lock_dotlock()  
failed with mbox file /var/mail/someuser: Permission denied.

Now the only difference other than the version I can see is the new  
version built with ssl.  Which I would like to use.

thanks,

ddh
