Subject: Re: Net::IMAP - Support for 'plain' authentication?

Interesting...I'll give it a try.  Not much documentation, though.

When I requre the file and run my script (no other modifications), I get this:

rmail IMAP backend
Starting...
     ...creating IMAP session service...
     ...creating watchdog thread...
     ...starting DRb server...
     ...started on druby://localhost:31382...
     ...done.


Until I Ctrl-C and it moves on.  After that, I get other IMAP errors I
can likely deal with.  How do I stop DRB from running?

Thank you!

Sean
