Since i got some free time this weekend i was going to try out mutt for the hell of it ..since i hear its a good reader..but i can't get it to connect to my IMAP4+SSL server. it connects fine to just the IMAP4 port but i must have it connect to the SSL port. the package description says it supports SSL and according to the FAQ i set the configuration to use SSL:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ more .muttrc set spoolfile={10.10.10.1/ssl}INBOX set folder={10.10.10.1} set imap_user=aphro when i load mutt: {10.10.10.1/ssl}INBOX is an invalid IMAP path, if i remove the /ssl it works fine, provided i turn off my firewall for port 143 .. from the MUTT faq: I'd like to get my mail via IMAP! Mutt does now officially support IMAP. Please upgrade to a recent version and use --enable-imap and preferably --with-ssl if you have OpenSSL installed to get SSL encryption for your IMAP connections. Then you simply set your spoolfile to "{mailhost/ssl}INBOX" to access your email (replace mailhost with the name or IP of your IMAP server and omit the "/ssl" if you don't have SSL support). INBOX is the canonical name for your mail spool via IMAP. With IMAP, you can have more than one mail folder and access them with "{mailhost/ssl}INBOX/foo with the name foo. ---- going to be a hard transition for me i think, being a pine and netscape mailer user for the past 5+ years ..but i trust the end result will be worth it ...im not really looking to recompile mutt to get this working..so if it is possible let me know what i am missing for it to work. btw im running potato looks like mutt is 0.94-5 thanks nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
