Unfortunately, we use Exchange at work. But I hide that unpleasant
fact from myself by using fetchmail and postfix on a Linux box. I
have never used Outlook or the web interface that Exchange provides.
Instead, I've always used mutt -- and more recently, sup. So I have
no idea if I'm having the same problem you are. Sorry!

This is currently not possible with Sup, which as a rule doesn't play
nicely with other mail clients. It wouldn't be terribly hard to add if
you were so inclined (we have an IMAP library in there already) and I'd
be happy to point you in the right direction, but it's not on my
near-term list of things to do.

GMail's SMTP server does this.

Interesting. Would you mind reposting it here, if you get a chance?

As someone else pointed out, this is because GMail's MTA is clever.

It doesn't have plugins per se. It has a pretty good hook system, but
that's probably not useful to you. What are you interested in using? The
ncurses interface? The full-text search index?

I abandoned that patch for my own use after a while. [I moved my .sup
to local storage from nfs and now use the mbox sent folder.] I still
like the idea, but that patch would need much work before it became
integration worthy. If there is sufficient interest, I'd invest the
time.
William, what requirements would need to be met from your side to see
this added?
Thanks
-Ben

As far as I'm concerned, if it works, I'll add it. I'd love to have this
functionality in Sup, and it is frequently requested.

Ok. I started cleaning up the original patch last night. I think it
was decent for the most part. The bad parts were the integration into
sup-config. I'll have something ready in a day or two, hopefully.
Since I'm back into mucking with this bit, are you open to having the
maildir scanning code move messages from new/ to cur/? This could
help with the unique id vs directory scanning issue.

Would it really help? I'd be willing if so, but I don't see how. Maybe
I'm missing something.
I've avoided moving new/ to cur/ because I didn't see any benefit to
Sup, and it conflicts with the hands-off philosophy, so it just seemed
like one more thing we could screw up. But if there is a real reason to
do it, I'd probably be willing.

Scan both folders (cur/, new/) on startup or sup-sync. After that,
scan only new. Since mail is moved out of new/ into cur/ after
detection, the time stamp stuff could be dropped since it would be
redundant anyway. I think I'd confused myself about the id generation
issue, so it wouldn't likely be of benefit there.

Sup would be a better Maildir citizen, since this is the intended way
to access/use a maildir source.

Crap, I think you're right. Polling will be trivial and no more messing
around with timestamps.
In fact I don't even have to scan cur/ on startup; I can just assume
it's unchanged. If you screw with the Maildir via another MUA you have
to run sup-sync --changed, just like with every other source.
For this to work, the "offset" for each message will have to be its
filename. I wonder how many implicit assumptions that will violate.
