Hello (please CC),
I have a mail account not matching my user name at mail.com.
The imap server is at imap.mail.com.
So, what I need to do is to send a request of
***@mail.com to imap.mail.com .
isync -a stats that it is logging into imap.mai.com as
***@imap.mail.com , which is dead wrong.


Relevnt lines in .isyncrc
_________
Host imap.mail.com
OneToOne yes

Mailbox /home/$USER/Mail/ME
Host imaps:/imap.mail.com
User ***@mail.com
...
_________

Thanks,
David

% isync --version
Version 1.1.1
that's a tad old.

% isync -Va
... which is why it didn't tell you that it doesn't want to be used any
more yet.
that's a synthetic account name composed from your local user name and
the server name. that's just how the isync wrapper works, and has no
consequences for the functionality at all.

which reminds me, i should finally do the 1.3 release ...
