I'm using EIMS as my IMAP server.

Based on the homepage it looks a bit like it's been abandoned: http://www.eudora.co.nz

There is no future work, so at some point I will switch to Dovecot, but for now it works well, and supports nice filtering options for spam. Unfortunately, it doesn’t support Sieve filtering to file messages in different mailboxes.


Also, seems like it doesn't support SSL. Be careful with that if you are not only running the server locally.

I tunnel all connections over SSH. I also have stunnel set up, which I use for iOS connections.


I created several new IMAP mailboxes at the top level. Each shows as "Untitled-x" where "x" is a digit that increases for each one. I can edit the name, but it doesn't stick, it still shows as "Untitled-x" in the list. Creating a rule to move messages into one, when initially picking the mailbox it shows as "Untitled-x" but the first time I save and re-edit the rule, the mailbox name shows. However, after quitting and relaunching MailMate, the mailboxes are back to "Untitled-x" in the list and in the rules. Using Eudora, I can refresh the mailbox list and the "Untitled-x" ones do not show at all. They still show in MailMate. If I create new mailboxes using Eudora, they don't show in MailMate after a synchronize account, but they do show after quitting and relaunching MailMate.

When a new mailbox is created then MailMate often first creates it with its default name and then shortly after renames it. It sounds like the renaming part fails.

Try this:

* Open the Activity Viewer (⌥⌘0). This enables logging.
* Create a new mailbox and rename it.
* Wait for the spinners to stop for the account/mailbox.
* Use “Help ▸ Send Server Logs”.

Then I can see if something unexpected happens.

I meant to add that I never saw the CREATE or rename actions in the log. I’ll send the log to Benny off-list.
