Re: Kmail : problem in checking Gmail with IMAP account type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Anne , thanks for replay

This is my configuration :
in General tab:
Account name : hf.farhad@xxxxxxxxx
Incomming mail server : imap.gmail.com
port : 993
login : hf.farhad@xxxxxxxxx
password : mypassword
checked: Store IMAP password , Include in manual mail check, Enable interval mail checking with 1 minutes check interval.

in IMAP Settings tab:
checked : Automatically compact folders, Load attachments on demand, use default identity.
Namespaces are empty ( I didn't change them ).

Security tab :
Encryption : Use SSL for secure mail download
Authentication mode : Clear Text

Filtering tab: Server supports Sieve is not enabled.

anyway, I disabled "include this folder when checking for new mail" and "Act on new/unread mail in this folder" in [Gmail] folder's properties (see the above link) and now I don't get the error anymore , but I think should would be another way for fixing this problem instead of completely preventing kmail from using the folder! :P

thx again.
Farhad

There's no problem with your English :-)

I don't use GMail's IMAP, but many people do, so it's probably a configuration
issue.  Try writing down (and posting here) full details of your KMail setup
screens for the gmail account - change a character or two in your login name
and make your password something like 'mypasswd' so that we can see the
structure without compromising your security.  Hopefully someone who uses
gmail imap will be able to tell from that where your problem lies.
