I suspect my brains are somewhat smaller than most of the subscribers
to this list, so please bear with me...
I'm trying to get Idle to work, and I'm not getting far. I've read
just about everything I can find (which isn't to say that I've found
everything), and I can't see where I'm going wrong. My question to
this list is simply: "Do I need to alter my configuration for Idle to
work as I'm expecting?"
For reference, the details of my setup:
I'm running a "server" for my own personal use. It's an OSX (G4) box,
running 10.4.11. (note, it's OSX "standard", not OSX Server)
I got a little help configuring Postfix and UW-IMAP here: http://
cutedgesystems.com/software/MailServe/
IMAP clients are: Apple Mail (running on the "server"); SquirrelMail
Webmail Server running on "server"; Apple Mail running on another
machine (for the purposes of testing, the separate machine is on the
same subnet, therefore not defeated by NAT etc - but normally
anywhere on the Internet on the other side of a NAT router.); and a
mobile phone that claims to support IMAP Idle.
I've installed the Idle pluggin for Apple Mail 2.x from here: http://
www.rothwell.us/imapidle/index.html
The logs on my (separate) client machine show that Idle mode is
"accepted":

However, it simply does not work as expected - nothing happens! I'm
defeated.
Any clues or pointers etc gratefully received....
Thanks
