I have installed the U of Washington IMAP server on a FreeBSD 2.1.7
server and thought it was working fine, and it probably is. However, I
can access a mailbox only once from Netscape Messenger (4.0) running on
a Windows 95 client. After that initial access, subsequent attempts get
the error various error messages.  Messenger reports: "Invalid IMAP4
url" is given, and usually the Netscape application then attempts
violates the client system's intergrity and must be shut down.

I've attempted Microsoft's Outlook Express mail client from a Windows 95
machine and have problem there logging onto the mail server, but the
error message imply it's possible trying to use POP3 instead of IMAP
protocol, and if so that may be a different problem.

Anyone experienced the access once then invalid imap4 url  problem
attempting to access the imap server and what was the resolution to the
problem?

Thanks.
