From which operating system are you attempting this? I assume some linux? I am attempting this from Ubuntu 14.04. Check if you can ping or telnet imap.gmail.com. It looks like you will > not.

And no ping would prove nothing because it might be forbiden at some node. :-) > With telnet, the full command must be: > $ telnet imap.gmail.com 993 Here's the response I got after doing telnet imap.gmail.com on port 993 om@om-virtual-machine:~$ telnet imap.gmail.com 993 Trying 74.125.130.108... Trying 74.125.130.109... Trying 2404:6800:4003:c02::6c... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Network is unreachable I tried 'ping imap.gmail.com 993' but terminal kept showing this for ever. PING 993 (0.0.3.225) 56(124) bytes of data. yes, port 993 seems to be blocked. I will talk to system manager at my university. Meanwhile, I am going through offlineimap codebase. I will get back to you with some solution/alternative, so that I could contribute to imapfw :-) > > > Do you have Unix/Linux at home, BTW? Sorry if this sounds intrusive.

So obviously, I will have access to computer not only up to end of GSoC but also after it :) *Thanks and Regards,* Om Prakash Kumar On 3 March 2016 at 14:33, Nicolas Sebrecht <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, Mar 03, 2016 at 09:51:04AM +0100, Nicolas Sebrecht wrote: > > > Do you have Unix/Linux at home, BTW? > > Sorry if this sounds intrusive.
