    [SOLVED]small courier-imap problem

    followed

    http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu8.04-lts-p5

    -

    all works i can send & receive e-mails, but i can't see my Inbox via Squirrelmail nor using evolution/outlook on other computers to pull new mail from my inbox. i can read it find on the server itself via cmd line ...just not from another computer or from squirrelmail.

    Any ideas?

    everything goes in Mailbox ... like it should. i can't figure out why sm or outlook aren't grabbing mail that has been received.

    need more info let me know. THANKS
    (I'm assuming this should be a fairly easy fix since i can receive mail just fine.)
    (& im using courier-imap)

    What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tap
    ? What's in your mail log when an email arrives on the system?

    Try this:
    Code:
    postconf -e 'home_mailbox = Maildir/'
    postconf -e 'mailbox_command ='
    /etc/init.d/postfix restart
