Re: [asterisk-users] Is anyone successfully using IMAP storage
Hello, I think I will create a new thread with a more attractive tittle to gather more feedback, so that decisions are easier. Up to now (4 answers): no one uses IMAP storage. As 1.4 is not so widely spread, chances are this IMAP feature is not used at all.

We don't use dovecot but our IMAP server has a master user function... can't figure out if its the same as the dovecot function, because: 1) The dovecot function isn't documented 2) There's no documentation as to how asterisk writes to the IMAP. So I'll put it out to the world to see if someone knows how it works Our email server can do this: "You can log into any mailbox via IMAP if your user has mboxadmin capabilities. So if you want to use UserA to log into UserB's mailbox, you can do the following: Username: mboxadmin:UserA:UserB Password: Password_User_A" Is that what Asterisk is expecting? ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] Is anyone successfully using IMAP storage
Not using IMAP storage here, although that was one of the primary drivers for upgrading to Asterisk 1.4. Why? The short answer is that it's too confining. There are too many caveats that don't fit into our existing IMAP structure and make the entire project rather iffy. Security is a concern too - we don't want to have one set of credentials that have absolute access to everyone's email from the CEO down. I suspect we /could/ make it work, but the thought of experimenting on our live IMAP server sends chills down my spine. (we don't have the budget or time to duplicate our mail server to allow fiddling on a non-production system) The idea is brilliant. The weird dependency on having a compiled-but-not-installed UW-IMAP isn't - I would have thought that using a library such as libvmime would have made more sense.

So please, do not hesitate to report successful or unsuccessful or never tried use of IMAP storage, it will increase our chances to get this feature in 1.4 branch and not wait for 1.6. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
