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. Jim Flanagan
