Mike,

I was able to change Outlook Express mail account from POP3 to IMAP still
pointing to the same sever thinking the server supports both POP3 and IMAP.
Looks like it does work, else it's still doing POP3 when I specified IMAP.
I guess I'll now wait for Nifty Hay Mitch to post another message and see
what happens.

Thanks!!
JR
