We sould have only one class to access a Mbox file, a pop, IMAP, NNTP or Etc! The imap protocol is very complex and I have a lot of work to do. I was focused in the low level API, (basicaly the FETCH response parser). If you want I can make now the high level api compatible with the Net_POP3 class and we can make Net_MailStore together.
