Hello-
On my 10.2 box, I'm trying to add my various IMAP email accounts in Kontact, but everytime I go to 'Check What the Server Supports' in

'Security' tab, I get the following error:

I currently use a suse 9.2 box for mail with Kontact, and all is configured the same. It works on the 9.2 box and has for years. Even on ly laptop running 10.0 is fine.
Presuming that the server in question does work with other clients, how bout just copying the info from them and don't go with the query command?
I seem to remember problems with query in the version of Kmail/Kontact that was common back then.
Sorry for the non-threaded response, new spam filtering on the server and well, things didn't go well... :( I tried copying the info from the kmailrc file over to the new system, but it never took. Regardless of if I use the 'query tool' (which I assume you mean the 'Check What the Server Supports' command....It still comes back with the fact that it cannot connect. Fajar- Firewall is not running on the system I am trying to configure to read mail. Firewall is only running on my firewall/router system :) As far as pop3... I don't like pop and haven't used that since like 1997. I know there's the whole 'leave the mail on the server' thing, but that's not what I want to do. I need to be able to check ALL mail (included messages moved to sub folders) from several locations: office, laptop, and via the web. Now just for experiment sake, I added a new account as a pop3 and well...it sort worked. I get a "server certificate authenticity test failed" message. I accept and my mail shows up in a subfolder. This was a Plesk setup on the server, but it's no longer in use. I do not get this message when trying to add/check mail for the imap account. I think that is where my issue is. Is there some sort of setting in the Security tab that I need to set to force it to check the server certificate for IMAP setups? brian -- Brian Jackson Photo Sports ~ People ~ Events http://www.BrianJacksonPhoto.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
