Release Notes: This release introduces support for recovery of a session when a network failure is encountered, and has other robustness improvements. It also adds Lua 5.2 compatibility, while the codebase is still compilable with version 5.1. Among the bugs fixed is appending of messages to mailboxes that did not yet exist, since it failed to create the mailbox and retry the append operation. A problem where SSL failures could produce misleading error printouts was corrected. Support for the old deprecated 1.x configuration format has been removed.

very useful, especially for MS Exchange etc
Company recently changed to MS Exchange which does not offer server-side filtering unlike other IMAP servers.
imapfilter has been of great help here. I would love to know of a way to integrate it with a spam filter program or something, because my inbox is constantly getting spam. Anyone know a way to do this?
Does exactly what it says on the tin
A very useful alternative to procmail for those who
like to keep their mail on an IMAP server. Not
totally perfect, but very close.
