As I'm using it anyway, should I make my modification available? As I'm pretty 
new to windows programming I have no idea if this would bloat the executable 
using the dll... the lib grows. You could also use defines to enable the 
different low-level apis if you need them like
#ifdef WINDOWS_DLL
#define EXPORT_LOWLEVEL_IMAP LIBETPAN_EXPORT
#endif

or something similar.
