Sorry for the non-threaded response, new spam filtering on the server and well, things didn't go well... :( I tried copying the info from the kmailrc file over to the new system, but it never took. Regardless of if I use the 'query tool' (which I assume you mean the 'Check What the Server Supports' command....It still comes back with the fact that it cannot connect. Fajar- Firewall is not running on the system I am trying to configure to read mail. Firewall is only running on my firewall/router system :) As far as pop3... I don't like pop and haven't used that since like 1997. I know there's the whole 'leave the mail on the server' thing, but that's not what I want to do. I need to be able to check ALL mail (included messages moved to sub folders) from several locations: office, laptop, and via the web. Now just for experiment sake, I added a new account as a pop3 and well...it sort worked. I get a "server certificate authenticity test failed" message. I accept and my mail shows up in a subfolder. This was a Plesk setup on the server, but it's no longer in use. I do not get this message when trying to add/check mail for the imap account. I think that is where my issue is. Is there some sort of setting in the Security tab that I need to set to force it to check the server certificate for IMAP setups? brian -- Brian Jackson Photo Sports ~ People ~ Events http://www.BrianJacksonPhoto.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
