[LUG] Selective IMAP sent-mail



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

What's the best way to solve this?

1. I'm on many mailing lists and post regularly
2. I use a variety of clients and machines to read and post
3. I use IMAP to read email but, currently, sent-mail gets left on each 
client/box.
4. I don't want mailing list posts to be stored on the IMAP sent-mail as I'll 
get those anyway
5. I would like non-mailing list sent-mail to be stored on IMAP so that I have 
a complete archive and I can follow off-list conversations more easily.

Should IMAP allow sent messages to be stored on the server by default or is 
there a config change required for that kind of access? (I can delete 
messages OK), (If yes, it's just a client problem and I can work on that.)

Is there a way of preventing list messages being stored along with other sent 
mail? Is that a server config or a client config?

I'm using the default IMAP in Debian stable - can't figure out which one or 
which version at the moment. (?) courier-imap and cyrus-imapd are not 
installed - is exim providing the IMAP daemon??

imapd --help just puts me into an IMAP shell that complains about BAD commands 
with help, version, h, v, --help, --version etc.
