[Phpgroupware-users] Email problems

[Barry Eriksen]

Hi Chris -- I've been playing with these paths and the 3 different imap
server options (Cyrus, UWASH and UW-MAILDIR) without success (after
installing anglemail)

When I send an email from within phpGW, the mail goes out fine. I've set the
maildir to "mail." and can see the mail in the Sent folder fine
("mail.sent"), but I can't see the mail in the inbox.  However, when I run
Outlook as a mail client, I can see the inbox, so I know it's there. PhpGW
must be looking in another path for the inbox. It almost seems that my mail
server is a hybrid of these types...using "." between folders except for the
inbox itself? I'm using Mercury32 mail server on Windows.

I've gone back and forth between Outlook and phpGW and with adding and
deleting folders, things have gotten very messy, so I probably need to start
over with a fresh email account and compare the imap server session logs.

In the interim if you have any other suggestions I would appreciate them.
Thanks for your help.

does your imap server need a mail dir path?  Try setting the imap server
type to
UW-Maildir and set the path.  UW uses mail/ by default, exchange uses no
path.
