Hi Andrew,

if i remember correctly, this issue has already been addressed multiple times, did the other threads helped you?

There was nothing that was "obvious", so I'll try to make it obvious here...


Completion of the "Installing/Configuring Mail" section was necessary for the oxinstaller to work.

Thanks,
Andrew

Yes it is required to have a working mail subsystem to make the oxinstaller work, i try to make this more clear at the wiki if possible.

I followed the mail setup directions from the wiki but still get the same error. Please let me know what else I should look at. This is my third day of trouble shooting and need to get my email working. I have a freashly installed SuSe 10.2. Thanks.

try to configure your Postfix correctly again, check whether u've installed/configured all Postfix-IMAP related packages correctly !!
