remote imap server problem (dovecot)

[koeberle]

Hello,

i have a problem to get OX to work with a remote imap server (dovecot). I made changes to imap.properties and to the table "users", but get the following error:

SCHWERWIEGEND: ACL-0004 Category=8 Message=Unknown IMAP server: * OK dovecot ready.^M
exceptionID=2008643287-63

With other imap clients it works fine. Any ideas?

Hi Helmut,

this has yet been discovered as a problem with the imap server compatibility of OX. Frederic Beuserie opened a bug for this:

http://bugs.open-xchange.com/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9729

atm. i'll suggest cyrus or courier as IMAP backend.

Greetings

Hi again,

Frederic did some research and posted some useful information attached to the bug posted prior. It seems that this issue is related to the OX IMAP autodetection as well as the dovecot IMAPd itself.
