-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have 2 computers here running linux and using Thunderbird for email. One is a laptop, running Vectorlinux-4.2; the other is a desktop, running Fedora 10 x86_64. Thunderbird is configured identically on both to ccess to separate IMAP accounts. Until this morning, both worked fine. Now the Fedora machine can no longer access my gmail IMAP account; it times out without establishing the connection. My laptop can still connect perfectly well. Did I mention they were configured identically? There are no firewall rules blocking gmail on the desktop machine: [root@lancre ~]# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain blocksshd (0 references) target prot opt source destination I can send mail from the desktop machine via gmail's smtp service, but copying the sent message to the IMAP folder fails, because the connection cannot be established. The mail is received properly by the laptop machine. WTF is going on? The only change in the system was installing Fedora's newest kernel and rebooting, as requested by the system update applet. # uname -a Linux lancre 2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Feb 23 13:00:23 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux The last mail received from gmail on the desktop machine was at 0745CST this morning, just prior to installing the new kernel and rebooting. I can't imagine a kernel update specifically blocking IMAP on gmail, but I have no other clues to go on. - -- John (john@xxxxxxxxxxx) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFJrvwvjXa7jixmuZsRAjdzAJsHudhH+4V6aDJsUkGsjsV/Ntns8wCffHCG 2MVulGhcaxp32kGanIjT8H4= =LQz+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
