Hmmm... I think they could have added a few hundred more configuration
options :)

Before I can play with the From field, I need to actually get it configured
for the standard stuff.  I'm using courier-imap... I can get to my INBOX,
but having trouble figuring out how to set up my special folders (Drafts,
Sent, Trash) and shared folders (I have several).  I'm searching the web
high and low for docs, but if you know of a good resource, please send it
my way.  Thanks.
