IMAPS is sort of working on my server/laptop; but I only get new mail on my laptop after I run kmail on the 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.<server>.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, particularly from anyone running IMAPS + kmail. I should say that I am running Fedora 7 on server and laptop. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
