I am collecting a list of ISPs that support IMAP and I'd like to add
Best/Verio to my list. The list is here

 <http://www.ii.com/internet/messaging/pine/changing_from/#publicAddress>

and a text version of it is below. Since I haven't yet migrated to the
new system, I don't know the answers to these questions:

* What IMAP server are they running?
* Is it possible to access the IMAP server using TLS/SSL?
* Is Pine that is running on the system compiled with TLS/SSL support?
* What authentication protocols are supported, e.g, CRAM-MD5, Kerberos, etc?
* How much IMAP-accessible space does each account get?
* Do virtual mailboxes get their own IMAP-accessible message store?

Thanks much for any info,
Nancy

                 between 1 and 250 virtual mailboxes. Each of these mailboxes
                 are IMAP-accessible and can be accessed by adding it to your
                 Pine incoming-folders list. Only the main mailbox comes with an
                 IMAP-accessible message store, which you can specify in your
                 Pine folder-collections list.
