Not relevent
Authored by: nyarlathotep on Aug 31, '03 11:15:46AM

This hint is for people who have no clout with the sysadmin on their mail server, i.e. most of the world. It is exactly this "only one way to do it" philosophy which makes the Mac such a weak system for many purposes.

As someone else mentioned, one can also use this hint to get other protocols working, i.e. you can use IMAP on a system which only supports POP. I'm even considering setting up an LDAP daemon via this trick, but I'm concerned that it willl be slow.
