I can't name the SP in question until they have "officially" launched 
the service due to legal reasons but once the product has been announced 
I promise to give you the details.  Other than that we've written a 
carrier grade backend with a AJAX presentation layer to some existing 
IMAP4 mailboxes (many millions of subscribers) and libetpan plays a 
keystone role.

Once the product has been proven we will then start to sell the backend 
to other SP's around the world.

Feedback I can do once the product has been accepted etc.

Thanks I've updated my latest package to include the mailfolder_check() 
after I've finished my get/recalc/check flags loop..
