Re: [K12OSN] segmentation fault

Hmmm...I don't know how Netscape's IMAP server works, but with both 
Courier-IMAP and Exchange Server (the reason I went to Courier-IMAP!), 
you can connect to the same mailbox from more than one client at a 
time.  I would assume that UW-IMAP would behave the same way.  I've done 
this with various versions of Mozilla, Evolution, and KMail over the years.

Is Netscape's IMAP server running on a different TCP port?  The std. 
port is TCP 143.  Try telnetting to it, like so (IP adrs's changed for 
minimal security):

 microman multimedia01:~$ telnet mail.cmosnetworks.com 143
 Trying 192.168.1.11...
 Connected to mail.cmosnetworks.com.
 Escape character is '^]'.
 * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE 
THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE] Courier-IMAP 
ready. Copyright 1998-2003 Double Precision, Inc.  See COPYING for 
distribution information.

As long as you get to the "Escape character is '^]'." part, then you 
know that something's running on TCP 143, presumably your IMAP daemon.  
If it's not, then you'll see something more like this:

 microman multimedia01:~$ telnet mail.cmosnetworks.com 9999
 Trying 192.168.1.11...
 telnet: connect to address 192.168.1.11: Connection refused
 microman multimedia01:~$

In this case, nothing's running on TCP 9999, so I got the "Connection 
refused" message.

It just occured to me:  are you running IMAP in Secure, i. e. 
SSL-enabled, mode, by any chance?  That runs on TCP 993.  I'd try 
telnetting to that, too, if I were you, and see if I got a response.
