Yes, thats what I meant.

And then for the send folder its basically the same:

m s c

scroll down to the smtp server line:

#move {imap.fastmail.com/ssl/user=chris at cwm030.com}

But, I am not sure where to find the path to the sent folder....

otherwise I am guessing it would be:

#move {imap.fastmail.com/ssl/user=chris at cwm030.com}sent-mail 
~/maildrop/sent-mail

ALPINE created the "sent-mail" folder under Fastmail's inbox.

Thanks,
Chris
