Hi All,

We are using Squrrelmail 1.4.22 on RHEL 6.1 (64 bit). For specifying the
imap server name we used the DNS name. But we got error saying “110
connection time out”.

We tried doing telnet to port 143 using the same host name from the command
prompt and found that the telnet access is happening as expected.

We replaced the host name with the IP address and things worked perfectly.

Finally we gave an entry of the host name in the /etc/hosts file for the
imap server and used that host name in the config.php. This time the
connection worked perfectly.

The same thing happens with the smtp server definition.

Any clue on what we are doing wrong here? Incidentally the IMAP server is
also the LDAP server and LDAP authentication worked with the DNS resolution.


We are a bit perplexed. Kindly guide.

With regards,

Goutam Baul
