Hrmf, this seems like it would work.  Unfortunately, when I try to drag
messages from an mbox folder to a maildir folder, only one of them is
moved (thank gnu for Undelete ;p).  I'm running the latest uw-imap
available for woody/stable..

FWIW, I also tried getting courier working (though it doesn't seem like
it would do this for me), but couldn't get it to authenticate me against
pam or shadow.. go figure..

Thanks for all past, present, and future help..
