Tip for IMAP Users

June 28, 2007

If you use Apple’s Mail.app with IMAP for your email and you’ve noticed that you sometimes get errors “Could not save Draft,” and that your Sent emails are no longer stored in the usual Sent box, try this tip:

Go to Preferences, Advanced, and use INBOX as your IMAP Path Prefix. Problem solved!

If you find that other mail clients besides Mail.app are affected by this issue and either can or cannot be solved in the same way, please let us know.
