Hi David:
I was wondering if you were able to sort out the issue you mentioned with your post: "Bug: Replies from subfolders not placed in sent mail on 1.5.2 or 1.4.14 with UW imap".
I am having the exact same problem.
Cheers,
Antonio
Yes Antonio I did. The solution was to quit using UW and switch to dovecot. The switch is simple: (1) install dovecot (2) edit /etc/dovecot.conf, set # Disable SSL/TLS support. ssl_disable = no #mail_location = mail_location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u (if your mailboxes are in ~/Mail and inbox in /var/spool/mail/user - the default on openSuSE 10.3) (3) install the dovecot.pem ssl cert: cd /usr/share/doc/packages/dovecot vi dovecot.crt (change as you need) sh makecrt.sh Done! If you use fetchmail for spamassassin, etc... then just get your ssl fingerprint with: 09:11 nirvana~/tmp> openssl x509 -in /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem -noout -fingerprint?SHA1 Fingerprint=AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF:00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99 Set up your fetchmail statement: poll *your.mailserver.com* protocol IMAP : user *yourusername* with password *yourpassword* sslfingerprint "AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF:00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99" That's it for the basic operation -- David C.
