dear all, i hope this is the right place for this.
i just install redhat fedora core 2 (fe2), the SM is the stable 1.4.2 (-3) and as it is the combo (fe2+cyrus-imap+squirrelmail) doesn't work. fe2 uses cyrus-imap and needs saslauthd to be running. after starting saslauthd i sucessfully logged in but it show errors on right & left frames, something along the line like permission denied, or INBOX does not exist. ok, i search the net and the solution is to use the cyradm to create the maildir (not mailbox!) but you have to login cyradm as "cyrus" with password not root or yourself. if you don't have the cyrus password you, as root, can change it. with cyradm i issue command "cm user.myusername" log in and ok i have INBOX but no drafts,sent,trash folders. go back to squirrel configuration, and select D - set predefined settings for specific IMAP servers. make it cyrus. ok now i got folders! i try to send an email to myself. major problem. i did not receive the email. the mail is properly sent by sendmail but it ends up in the usual /var/spool/mail directory. cyrus-imap use a different location for user's 'home' directory: /var/spool/imap/s/user/ which is structured as follows: /Drafts /Sent <--sent self-test emails do reside here /Test <--my test folder /Trash cyrus.cache cyrus.header cyrus.index <i suppose the INBOX would be on *this* level> how can i make sendmail deliver to this location? i don't think cyrus can or want to look into /var/spool/mail for INBOX right? i had many searches on the net but *sniff* i just want the really easy solution without having to work out what is m4, sendmail.cf or if i am missing something... thanks =) ---------------------------------------------- This email was sent from Hock Seng Lee Berhad. http://www.hsl.com.my ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by The 2004 JavaOne(SM) Conference Learn from the experts at JavaOne(SM), Sun's Worldwide Java Developer Conference, June 28 - July 1 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, CA REGISTER AND SAVE! http://java.sun.com/javaone/sf Priority Code NWMGYKND -- squirrelmail-users mailing list List Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Archives: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=2995 List Info: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
