Thanks Matthew. I'll look into that at some point, but I'm not entirely 
sure it will be necessary in my situation.

I finally decided to scrap Mail::Box and go with Mail::IMAPClient 
instead as suggested (I didn't even bother with the workaround), and it 
worked immediately! So I'm stoked... much simpler to use. Should have 
called it Mail::IMAPSimple instead :)

All that googling for nought! Mail::IMAPClient never really came up as a 
contender when searching perl imap - it was all about Mail::Box. Weird...

Cheers
