UW-IMAP Proxy

  1. Default UW-IMAP Proxy

    I am attempting to modify UW-IMAP so that it can act as written as well as
    act as a proxy if the user's mailbox is on another IMAP server. I'm
    hoping to make modifications on both the frontend and backend with a
    trusted user authentication between the two. The frontend would basically
    check a database to see if the user were local or remote. The backend
    would allow the trusted user to authorize as any user.

    Has anyone attempted this? Any suggestions or big obstacles?

    Thanks,
    Matt Cuttitta

    You may also wish to consider this existing IMAP Proxy software. We
    found this to be very effective and to work well with UW IMAP.
