Summary: Outlook plug in for IMAP boxes

Initial Comment:
I know similar problems have been listed, however i dont 
believe they were addressed, nor do i believe the 
previous poster was clear.  

When using the oulook plug in to monitor IMAP boxes in 
Outlook, a couple undesirable effects occur that have 
people angry at me.  

First: 
If a message is placed in "Junk Suspects" and a user 
attempts to "Recover from Spam" the message is 
returned to the local store inbox instead of the IMAP box 
from which it came.  I have read that this occurs 
because the plug-in cannot actually modify the message 
to tell where it came from, and thus where to put it if 
recovered.

My suggested workaround is the following:  Add an IMAP 
Recovery option that allows the user to select which 
folder recovered messages are returned to.  Seems 
simple enough and would result in less "lost messages".

Second:
As a workaround to the above problem, my users drag 
messages from the "Suspects" folder back to the Inbox, 
since hitting the recover button moves those messages 
to the wrong folder.  This is a fine solution if the 
message has been marked as read, however if the 
message is marked as unread, then within a few seconds 
SpamBayes evaluates the message again and moves it 
to the Suspects folder again.  Again, there is a 
workaround, which is that the messages must be marked 
as unread before manually dragging them back.  The 
result however, is a marked decrease in usability and 
simplicity.

Of course my suggestion to this is to resolve the 
underlying issue stated above.

I appreciate your time and this wonderful product.

Keegan
