Hi James, I think that my problem was that in the configuration i've done with Yast, i'dd choosen the option 'deliver to Cyrus IMAP' or something like that. From your explanation, i think i need to take the option 'LOCAL', and then point my email-client to localhost, with userid & password of my linux-box. Am i correct in this ? Perhaps i'm searching a solution that's too difficult, and it's easy :-) How do i configure the sending of mail then ? Does this point also to localhost ? How did you do that ? Do my sent emails come into a folder in IMAP also then ? Kind regards & thanks in advance ! Franky.

Hi James,
I'm not able to find any documentation about how configuring the users,...
The service is running, i can see it with your command.
Again, there's no configuration. If you're running the same imap as me (imap-2002d-53) it automatically picks up the mail from the user's mail on that computer. What I did, to keep things simple, is create a user with the same ID as my e-mail account and used fetchmail to bring the mail down from my isp.
Try setting up an e-mail client, to use the imap server. Then, using the mail command, send a message to that user. The e-mail client should be able to see that message. Then set up fetchmail, to get your mail.
