Does %telnet localhost 143 Trying ::1... Connected to localhost.littlelight.org.uk.

Copyr ight 1998-2005 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for distribution information. Give any thing ? if so did you run the squirrelmail setup script and check the server settings. If not check why your imap server is not running. Also check the permissions on the squirrelmail directory as far as your web server is concerned. Check apache error logs and stuff
Still not working i have checked permissions for squirrel mail......& i have given 777 permissions. Still i am having errror ........................ But i am not able logging using telnet telnet 192.168.0.201 143 Trying 192.168.0.201... telnet: connect to address 192.168.0.201: Connection refused telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused but normal telnet is working...... telnet 192.168.0.201 Trying 192.168.0.201...

looks like your imap server is not running so you need to fix that. oh of course dont forget firewall issues maybe depending on your setup and try telnet localhost 143 rather than 192.168.0.201 just out of interest I use bsd so can't help you much further if your imapd server is not running good luck

Do you want to connect using IMAP or POP3? For IMAP you must open port 143 in your firewall and probably change /etc/dovecot.conf.
i want to use pop3 so the users be able to connect to server through Ms.outlook or any other program using pop3 protocol and SquirrelMail as webmail interface is this possible ???? thanx
linux Fedora Core 5 with ISPConfig 2.2.6 i followed perfect setup for Fedora 5 ___________________________________ errmsg: "Error connecting to IMAP server: localhost. 111 : Connection refused"
yes this my /etc/dovecot.conf * # Protocols we want to be serving: # imap imaps pop3 pop3s #protocols = imap imaps pop3 protocols = imap pop3 is this correct ?? ------------------------------------- this opened ports from ISPconfig Local Portscanner Port 21 (tcp) is open (ftp)! Port 22 (tcp) is open (ssh)! Port 25 (tcp) is open (smtp)! Port 53 (tcp) is open (domain)! Port 80 (tcp) is open (http)! Port 81 (tcp) is open (ISPConfig)! Port 110 (tcp) is open (pop3)!

Looks ok. If your firewall doesn't block ports 110 and 143, your users should be able to use POP3 and IMAP.

You said you followed the Perfect Setup in which Postfix gets installed, and now I see that you use Sendmail: So I guess you used your own setup?
i'm beginner to linux systims so i don't know how to install any thing by my self now i can't start postfix [root@dwc ~]# service postfix start Starting postfix: [FAILED] ------------------------------------------------------- thx
That's because you have installed / activated sendmail. Sendmail and Postfix are mutual exclusive on the same server. Remove sendmail. Code: yum remove sendmail
