Frequently Asked Questions
--------------------------
-> Why this horrible name?
It's a play on words: WebDAV - DAV - caDAVer. Gettit?
-> Why not something... nicer?
Suggestions are very welcome: if you can come up with something
better, I'm willing to change the name.
-> Why doesn't the "edit" command work with gvim?
Because gvim forks and runs in the background by default. Set the
EDITOR environment variable to "gvim -f", or put in ~/.cadaverrc
set editor "gvim -f"
to make the edit command work properly.

-> How do I read my HotMail e-mail using cadaver?
Run:
./cadaver -t http://law14.oe.hotmail.com/cgi-bin/hmdata/foobar@hotmail.com/folders/ACTIVE/
replacing 'foobar' with your real account name. Login when prompted
using your username (without @hotmail.com) and your password. Then
use 'ls' and you'll get a mailbox listing. Use 'less' or 'cat' to
display message contents. 'cd ..' to get a list of your folders.
You MUST use the '-t' switch to cadaver since the HotMail servers
support a specific subset of DAV operations. You MUST also have
built against libxml, otherwise you get XML encoding errors.
-> That's a really horrible way of reading e-mail though
Yup. Now go add WebDAV support to fetchmail.
