IMAP and authentication...

yuri.rj · Post by **yuri.rj** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 7:58 pm

Hi again everyone...

Here i am again with my problems sending and receiving e-mails...
Our e-mail server just changed and now all accounts are exchange accounts....

So.. i have access through IMAP but i'm receiving some errors.

Maybe one of you had this experience already.

This server requires a secure connection with the e-mail sender. Aware IM doesn't support this yet. You need a different e-mail server.

Hi Support!

Does AwareIm support secure connections for email servers yet? We need it before we can get our software working. I think it's important to the rest of the community too!

Thanks!

No, not yet

Does IMAP work correct in AwareIM?

I mean does it saves email on the server?

Sergej · Post by **Sergej** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 7:25 am

IMAP in awareim removes email from the server. It is a pity, because usually it leaves them.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_M ... s_Protocol

E-mail clients using IMAP generally leave messages on the server until the user explicitly deletes them. This and other characteristics of IMAP operation allow multiple clients to manage the same mailbox.

Will it be available soon?
It's a really needed functionality

yuri.rj · Post by **yuri.rj** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 3:07 pm

For those who still have this problem
I found out something called Stunnel
It's an application that can "emulate" the SSL/TLS connection needed to use with servers that require secure connection

Hope it helps

corradomatt · Post by **corradomatt** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 3:26 am

Hi yuri.rj, thanks for the info about Stunnel. It looks promising until Aware can add this functionality. Have you gotten it to work for your application?

I'm interested in getting it working for gmail - specifically a google apps account. I'm going to play around with it tonight and see if I can get it to work.

yuri.rj · Post by **yuri.rj** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 9:16 am

Actually I AM using gmail.... And it works perfectly
Tell me if you need some help
It's pretty simple actually...

Good luck

Yuri .. why don't you just post your "help" notes here for everyone to use in the future. Steps of your solution would be very helpful.

yuri.rj · Post by **yuri.rj** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:23 pm

tford,

You're right!
I hadn't posted before because it's almost self explanatory

The only thing is to edit the .conf file
After the installation, stunner creates a shortcut called "Edit stunnel.conf"

On this file there are some commented lines like this

;[gmail-imap]
;client = yes
;accept = 127.0.0.1:143
;connect = imap.gmail.com:993

All you have to do is uncomment the lines that you'll use and edit your IP and PORT. I chose 1110 to POP3 and 1109 to smtp and stunnel is installed in the same server(localhost/127.0.0.1). So here its my .conf file

[gmail-pop3]
client = yes
accept = 127.0.0.1:1110
connect = pop.gmail.com:995

[gmail-smtp]
client = yes
accept = 127.0.0.1:1109
connect = smtp.gmail.com:465

Thats it.
Now AwareIM configuration must point to 127.0.0.1 and the selected port must match the ones that had been chosen(in my case 1110 and 1109).
AwareIM will try to contact the SMTP/POP3 server on the 127.0.0.1 and stunnel will redirect it to pop.gmail.com:995/smtp.gmail.com:465

Did i made myself clear? i don't know if my english is that good…….

corradomatt · Post by **corradomatt** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 9:06 am

ok yuri.rj, thanks for that....I think I understand it but I cannot get it to work on my system. I am developing on a windows xp machine and I have tried to use the standard 127.0.0.1 with no success. I have also tried to use the IP address assigned by my router (192.168.1.100) with no success.

Could you possibly point me in the right direction for the correct IP address?

yuri.rj · Post by **yuri.rj** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 9:18 am

For me it was that simple... But let's try to solve that
Could you post your stunnel.conf?
And what are your awareIm system settings? Could you post a print screen for that too?
