Hi,

I'm completely new to imap. I'm running Suse 8.2 with KDE 3.2. I've installed 
imapd and have it running in xinetd, from the suse cd. 

I'm trying to get a mail client to connect, but have not been successful. I 
ran the openssl req..... as outlined in the suse help page and I think that 
worked fine. However I can't get a client to connect. I've tried both on 
internal IP address, and from external to IP domain. It advises that a 
connection could not be established. (I don't think this is relevant, but 
I've tried Outlook, Pegasus, and Thunderbird). 

I can telnet in from internal and external, and get OK [COMPATABILITY 
IMAP4REV1 STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED].....

From here I don't know what else to do or type. Any advice?

Also, I don't know if the client should be configured to use direct SSL or 
StartTLS. 

Thanks for any advice.
