Hi there,
I've just installed IMAP with qmail and everything's working ok.
Now, I'm trying to connect to the server with a perl module and I'm
gettting this:
3 NO NAMESPACE not supported by server
In my imapd configuration file I've:
IMAP_CAPABILITY="IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE
THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE"
Shoudn't this capability be activated?
Thanks for the help
Are you sure you have Courier's IMAP running? This doesn't sound like a
response Courier would give. In fact, I couldn't find "not supported by
server" in the Courier sources at all after doing a quick search.
Without ever doing *anything* about NAMESPACE or IMAP_CAPABILITY in my
install I get this kind of response:
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE
THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE STARTTLS]

Even if I don't log in (which is required by NAMESPACE, AFAIK) I get
this rather than your error:
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE
THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE STARTTLS]

So, I'd definitely check that you don't have another IMAP service
running somewhere instead of Courier. Try to telnet to your IMAP
service and check what the initial server greeting is as a first step
and see if it mentions the name of the server... Courier does.
