Subject: [courier-users] problem with courier-imap
I recently installed courier-imap-1.3.8.1.20010516 on my Linux box running
slackware 7.1 and kernel 2.4.2. After installation the only changes I
made
to /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/imapd was to set 'IMAPDSTART=YES'. However,
when I setup an imap account using Outlook Express and first try to
download
the imap folders list I get the following error
'Your server has unexpectantly terminated the connection. Possible causes
for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity.'
Additionally the Details window shows the following.
Configuration:
Account: 24.221.203.13
Server: 24.221.203.13
User name: jharrissprint2
Protocol: IMAP
Port: 143
Secure(SSL): 0
Code: 800ccc0f
Out of curiosity I tried 'telnet localhost 143' and got the following.
jharrissprint2@fastback:~$ telnet localhost 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
jharrissprint2@fastback:~$
Anyone know what the cause of the problem might be? Thanks in Advance.
