I followed the postfix tutorial (with quota etc..., http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier ) and I think everything went fine. Now, I want to use fetchmail to catch the mail from my mailserver (via imap) and use this machine as local mailserver, the only problem is: I can't use any webmail. IlohaMail gives timeouts, Talaen Webmail gives me this error: "Maildir: No such file or directory" I read this might be because there isn't any mail yet, so probably there is something wrong with my fetchmail-configuration. I followed this tutorial and the only thing I'm not sure about, is the local user. Should this be the email from the users-table (in the mail-database), or something different?
Maildir is created when the first email arrives. I'd try the email from the users table. If it doesn't work, please check your mail log for errors.
Ok, that's working fine now. Only one prolbem left: I use imap, but fetchmail seems to delete te messages from the mailserver when they are delivered to the local mailserver. Is there a way to prevent this, so I have sort of a backup of my messages. And is it possible to receive both new AND read messages? (ok, that makes 2 problems ) My current fetchmail config-file: Code: poll SERVER proto AUTO user USER there with password PASS is LOCALUSER here
Change it to Code: poll SERVER proto AUTO user USER there with password PASS is LOCALUSER here [B][COLOR="Red"]keep[/COLOR][/B]
