I like the sound of that.  Sounds to me like some folks are expressing
serious interest.

Do keep in mind that imap-uw still has bugs today that cause "random
crashes", and its logging has always been crappy.  That is not an

That said, I'm still cheering you on towards the finish line, and
thanks for the great work.
