  In the product database http://www.imap.org there is one product mentioned 
which claims to be an IMAP server and which runs on OS/2, besides two running 
under JAVA.

  Would be nice. Although I think that a pure IMAP client might be better, and 
that a lot of the good features of PMMail would not be needed for an IMAP 
client. 

   Anyway, before PMMail develops a proprietary solution for a server based 
message database shared between several clients, as the speaker before me 
seemed to suggest, I think that IMAP provides such a solution. For further 
information in IMAP see http://www.imap.org
