Hopefully this gets someone with more experience onto the right track to fixing the problem. I also don't know why it's only a problem when going through the Mobile Access server if I openssl while I'm on the internal network, I don't need the -crlf switch for it to work.
#APPLE OS X SERVER MAIL HOW TO#
So it looks like the CRLF is the source of the issue, but I have no idea how to make Mail.app do this correctly. Tried the login command again, "a login ", and this time got "a OK Logged in."Īnd from there, I could select the Inbox, etc. Same information about the server as before, and the same "* OK Dovecot ready." message. Trying that article's suggestion, I issued in Terminal this command: The answer to the problem was that the IMAP server only responds to lines ending with. not sure why or how to get this back on lone. In setting it indicates that the outgoing mail server: with my email address, is (Offline).
I found an article through Google where someone had the exact same problem trying to connect to GMail. Having issue with outgoing mail server, which is an imap. No error messages on the client side, so being stuck, I tried to find anyone with a similar issue just generically with dovecot and openssl. Same error - the user and authmethods are blank. I terminated the openssl session, VPN'd in to the internal network and checked the Mobile Access Server mail logs. Wow! We're actually connecting through the Mobile Access Server to the internal IMAP server. This actually connects, gives a bunch of info about the server, and ends up returning "* OK Dovecot ready." I went to Terminal, and used openssl to see if I could get any error messages that would help. Well, after suffering through this same problem for quite a while, I started doing some digging to see what I could find. So just lookup the guy who was fixing the mail client on iOS recently -)
#APPLE OS X SERVER MAIL MAC OS X#
The mail client on the iPhone caused exactly this problem while the mail clients on Mac OS X worked fine. And anyway, no other mail cleint has a problem!Įdit: A year a ago I had a smiliar problem. I get the same problem when I directly connect with 993. Note that I am using the mobile access server so that users from outside connect (e.g.) to port 999 and it gets internally forwarded to the IMAP port 993. Here a snippet from the log-file (one connection from an iOS is working another fails): Looking at the log-file it seems that the server doesn't get certain information like the login-name. Alos, if I use Postbox I can perfectly use my IMAP account on the Xserve. Other clients from iOS devices and older versions of Mail still work fine. Can it be that Mail in Mac OS X 10.7.4 is broken? While the Mail client (Version 5.2 (1278)) works fine with most IMAP servers it does not with the IMAP on my Mac OS X Server 10.6.8.
