Murder, folders, outlook express

[b]

For this (show the folder in OE) action, there is no log on backend.

I then ran tcpdump on backend, and there was not a single packet coming
from frontend to backend.

There were few packets from frontend to mupdate master (on its own
server), if that matters in this case:
May 30 21:30:37 mail4 mupdate[16677]: accepted connection
May 30 21:30:38 mail4 mupdate[16677]: login: murderback from
192.168.2.15 [192.168.2.15]
