Title: IMAP (unsecure) to the public
Post by: migraineboy on November 22, 2006, 08:42:54 AM

I have devices which receive updates via an imap connection to our mail server.  These devices do not support IMAPS and also receive IPs from many difference ISPs (too large of pool to open up as a local network).

What is the most elegant way to allow incoming IMAP (not IMAPS) connections?  Ripping out the clients hardware devices is not an option ;(

Moving this topic to the SME Server 7.x forum, it is more appropriate there. Thanks!

The option is still there, but because SME 7 is designed for being secure and only allowing encryted protocols...

If you understand the risks then to allow imap access do...

config setprop imap access public
signal-event email-update

Thanks for posting the proper command.  I was trying
config setprop imap access ALL...obviously, that did not work.

Thanks again,
