Hi Gasha,

thanks for your prompt answer! But sadly, spam ain't our only problem (hell, i got 660 mails in my spam folder in the last 30 days!!) and it ain't the problem for message display:

It worked perfectly with popa3d! We are using that system for years now. The message display problem is limited to the yet switched workstations, all i did is configuring netscape as i have written down to do it here at our site. Some workstations are still running pop3, with no problems at all like they did always. The difference from configuring pop<->imap is following:

== Skip all pop stuff, select the same server for imap.

Messages are checked at startup and then every minute, empty trash on exit and "only show subscribed folders" is disabled! All other options are left as they are. The Netscape installation is absolutly identical over all workstations, even the signature.

I also still got my pop3 config running parallel (just in case), and the spam is displayed in excellent 16.x million colours and all details, with imap and also pop3. (Will i order the taiwanese soap or the mini fridge for my car?)

So the spam mail ain't the problem. I am sure, the problem must be somewhere between netscape, dovecot or the chair i am sitting in.

Hi Steven,

It is Netscape problem. Sad, but it is.

Looks like rendering process hangs while it tries to show SPAM. I have similar problem. Subject line with 8-bit characters is the worst i think. Sometimes rules aren't working at all, if message filter tries to process SPAM message.

Hi,

Now we suffer from a realy ugly problem, which was arising after the switch from pop3. When Netscape is newly started, it works fine as expected until Netscape displays messages corrupted or stops displaying them completly. I also cannot forward them in that state or open or delete them in any other way. The only way to get it working again is to quit Netscape, exit quickstart and restart Netscape again.
