In the current CVS (Evolution 1.5) this feature is present but the GUI doesn't allow you to set up -- you have to muck about with gconf because the simple dialog box was deemed to be 'too confusing'. If you're using 1.4, which you seem to be, you need a build with that feature backported. The two patches you need are available at ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/people/dwmw2/evo/ along with prebuilt packages for Red Hat^W^W Fedora Core which can probably be made to work elsewhere fairly easily. These _do_ have the option available in the GUI. Go to the 'Receiving Options' tab of the account editor, check 'Use custom command to connect to server' and enter the command there. The default, IIRC, is 'ssh -C -l %u %h exec /usr/sbin/imapd' which is probably going to work for you, but if not, you can insert whatever command _does_ give you an IMAP prompt. Note '%u' and '%h' are replaced with your account's configured username and server hostname respectively. First, check that 'ssh external.server.net exec imapd' actually works for you. It should probably say something involving PREAUTH. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
