similar to: dovecot pop3s delivers new messages as old (unread) messages ...

At present I get email directly on my laptop in /var/spool/mail/* through uucp. I'd like to get the email in the same directory on my desktop (alfred), and then run a mail server on the destop and collect the email on my laptop (william) (or on other computers on my two little home LANs, ethernet and WiFi). I was advised that dovecot was a good imap server for this purpose (I tried

I keep getting this error, and I have no clue where it comes from. I have no localhost in my fetchmailrc file, all I have in main.cf is: mydestination = paulandcilla.homelinux.org, localhost here is some of the entries in /var/log/mail.err: Dec 7 16:00:38 paulandcilla fetchmail[16761]: connection to localhost:smtp [::1/25] failed: Connection refused.

Trying to figure out how to configure it for multiple users. By default CentOS doesn't have a daemon setup if you want to do this. Preston

Hi there, I'm using Dovecot 2.0.9-1 under Arch Linux. Currently, I have Maildir configured, and I move all my emails into dovecot by using this sequence: 1) cron starts fetchmail periodically under user manfred to collect my mails from various email accounts. 2) In ~/.fetchmailrc I have configured /usr/bin/maildrop as MDA. 3) In ~/.mailfilter (used by maildrop) I have extensive filtering in

Is there any way of turning off the fetchmail warning ---------------------------------- fetchmail: Warning: the connection is insecure, continuing anyways. (Better use --sslcertck!) ---------------------------------- which I get when fetching imap mail from my college department? I know they should get a root certificate, but I'm told they are looking into it, but that could take forever.

Is there some way to add a maildir folder to a mbox hierarchy? My folders are all mbox, but I want to migrate some client-side mail from a client (PMMail2000) that stores messages as individual files, and it might be easiest just to dump all the files into a maildir directory with suitable naming.

I am using fetchmail to collect mail from some secondary mail accounts, among which is hotmail. So far I have used hotwayd to fetch the mail from hotmail using httpmail. Hotmail now supports pop3 access, so I decided to change fetchnail to fetch the mail directly over pop3. This works, but whatever I try, I get an error message when I run fetchmail: Invalid SSL protocol 'SSLv23'

Hi, Appologies for a possibly inexact bug report but I've noticed a change in behaviour from openssh version 2.5.2p2 to 2.9p2. One of my many uses for openssh is setting up a secure tunnel from my home machine to an external mail server and using fetchmail over said tunnel. When done in this manner fetchmail actually starts up openssh. When I moved from 2.5.2p2 -> 2.9p2 (both compiled

Hi all, Anyone know how to specify for fetchmail in .netrc the "folder" to read ? If tried folder XYZ and it says unknown token folder. Man page says that should work. Jerry

Hi All, I have a system running (home based) Centos latest fully patched, etc that is acting as quasi mail server dhcp and name server. My question deals with mail.

Hello, I have a home setup where I am using Centos 4.4 as a sort of mail server. This is what I have done. I have it configured to pop mail locally.

I'm not sure if this is a Debian/Ubuntu question related to R or a Gmail question related to R so I thought I would start with this mailing list. I often wish to email R scripts and the result of a R CMD BATCH run of the script. I wish them to be enclosures of mime type text/plain so they are easier to handle and so they can be included in the archives of mailing lists. I use the web

I am running Dovecot and wanted to make sure that to disable POP3 access on the MDA is as simple as removing the POP lines: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s imap_listen = * pop3_listen = * imaps_listen = * pop3s_listen = * Do I need to modify anything else or am I looking in the totally wrong section: -- Man your battle stations...
