Dear gurus in sunny Ireland,
I have IMAPS sort of working;
except that I only get new mail on my laptop
after I run kmail on my server.
On my laptop, I have an IMAPS account pointing to my server.
On the server I am running dovecot;
the relevant lines of /etc/dovecot.conf are:
--------------------------------
protocols = imap imaps
ssl_listen = *:993
ssl_disable = no
mail_location = maildir:~/Mail/inbox
protocol imap {
listen = *:143
ssl_listen = *:993
}
--------------------------------
On the server kmail has 2 Accounts;
A Local account, which collects mail from /var/spool/mail/tim ,
and an IMAPS account, which points to itself, as www.gayleard.com .
New mail goes into IMAPS/inbox (I'm not sure why).
On the server, .procmailrc contains the lines
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/tim
DROPPRIVS=yes
Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.
I am (of course) running Fedora 7 + KDE on both machines.
