My default user, who is aliased to root and postmaster, has recently
gotten mail which was deposited into an Mbox named Maildir.


After creating three folder in Maildir/, cur/, new/, and tmp/ , I can get
mail. I'm now getting:
* 0 EXISTS
as opposed to 2 as stated in the man page when running "Z SELECT INBOX".
  famd is started, but I'm getting "entering idle mode", that is, without
the "Enhanced" part and the imapd processes are not communicating the
changes.
What do I do now? How do I diagnose?


If you're starting from the commandline, you have to set the same  
environment variables that get specified in the imapd configuration file.


For example, the imapd configuration file explains that IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE
must be set to 1, so if imapd is invoked from the command line:

IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE=1 ./imapd

As explained in the chmod(1) man page, the t bit is the restricted

What part of this error message is unclear?


And couriertcpd says that the dir is locked.


And what's unclear about that?


Finally, running imapd from the test account it seems that I'm already
logged in:

% imapd
* PREAUTH Ready.
INFO: LOGIN, user=test ip=[127.0.0.1], port=[0], protocol=IMAP
Z SELECT INBOX
Z NO UNABLE TO OPEN THIS  MAILBOX.


No, it means that imapd is not started correctly, or from the wrong  
directory. imapd must be started from the account's maildir, not its home  
directory.

Did this, I'm still getting the same result. Here's more info:
I start couriertcpd:
root # couriertcpd -address=127.0.0.1 -nodnslookup -noidentlookup
143 /usr/bin/imapd /home/test/Maildir

I tried using ./Maildir, but then root does not have a Maildir so
connecting from  my test account returns "no such file or...".
Changing the path to an absolute one, I set -user and -group to test
(changing owner to match and I get:
* BYE Your account is temporarily unavailable (+t bit set on home
directory)
And couriertcpd says that the dir is locked.
). If the dir is set so that the user is test and the group is mail and I
start couriertcpd with -user and -group set to mail I get the same result.
Changing the user to root returns that the dir is not owned by the
correct user.
Finally, running imapd from the test account it seems that I'm already
logged in:

% imapd
* PREAUTH Ready.
INFO: LOGIN, user=test ip=[127.0.0.1], port=[0], protocol=IMAP
Z SELECT INBOX
Z NO UNABLE TO OPEN THIS  MAILBOX.

I created three folders inside Maildir named Inbox, INBOX, and inbox
then  tried again without success.

Thanks,
David

Each IMAP command starts with a command identifier, which is an arbitrary  
label. The letter "a" will be sufficient.


a login userid password

[courier-users] How to test imap idle

2016-09-05 Thread David Niklas 
Hello,
I've been following the imap man page (this is a fresh install), and I
su'ed into my test account and netcat to 127.0.0.1 143. I then entered:
C: login test 1234
S: login NO Error in  IMAP command received by server.

Now, there may be no error, but it sure is strange to get that message
no-matter what command I enter.
I figure that maybe there's a database I need to fill in with names and
passwords.
What do I do?

Thanks,
David
