Well it may well be an apache issue, but I have a couple of difficulties with 
your comments:

The port settings in the config file are to do with imap and smtp - these are 
set at the standard 143 and 25.  Nowhere do I see 2096.

An earlier response stated that 2096 is very non-standard, so it seemed 
reasonable to wonder where that number was coming from.  Presumably it's 
something to do with the way apache is configured.

This is probably not a SM issue as you suggest, but given that I can get to 
html pages OK and it's supposedly a bog standard apache install, I had to 
wonder.

And again - there are no messages to look at in the mail log - presumably 
because I don't get far enough to even attempt a login.

Anyway - I'll go back to my apache config and try to work out what the issue 
is there.

thanks
Brian
