Since you have enabled unixhierarchysep, you should create

Usenet/comp/mail/imap

This is the IMAP name of the mailbox.

I ran :

localhost.localdomain> cm Usenet/comp/mail/imap

and tree sub-mailboxes have been created, I started nntpd and nothing is delivered into "imap".

I still don't get it. :-[

Can an NNTP client access the server and see the comp.mail.imap group?

You could also login in with nntptest and try:

LIST
GROUP comp.mail.imap

You could also try using the POST command.

I got the feed ! It works. Thank you very much. Actually, I got it earlier but didn't realised.


I created the mailboxes, ran nntpd and it worked.

How would the groups be named without unixhierarchysep ?

Also, it seems that everybody can post from my server - how to disallow access for posting and more generally to manage posting or reading ?

I've managed /etc/news with:
------------------------------------------
default xfer no
------------------------------------------
according to http://howtos.linux.com/guides/nag2/x-087-2-nntp.access.shtml but not sure it works and it'd be enough.


How to manage access (posting/reading) on port 119 ?

Is /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/nntpd -f enough ? http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/nntpd8.html

Also, it seems that ANNOTATEMORE is used to delete messages with cyr_expire, isn't it ? Need to read more about it.

I thank you very much for your help.

Cheers.
