A user asked to set up IMAP proxy server
(/usr/ports/mail/up-imapproxy)
I installed it from the ports, then
# cp /usr/local/etc/imapproxyd.conf.sample /usr/local/etc/imapproxyd.conf
# vi /usr/local/etc/imapproxyd.conf
and changed server_hostname ... to contain my imap server
and listen_port 143 to listen_port 993 (it's an SSL imap server)
and server_port 143 to server_port 993
Then added in /etc/rc.conf
imapproxyd_enable="YES"
then
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/imapproxyd start
which responds
Starting imapproxyd.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/imapproxyd: WARNING: failed to start imapproxyd
For a short time, a
# ps -jaxw | grep imap showed:
root 62092 57397 62092 64240 1 I+ 1 0:00.02 /bin/sh
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/imapproxyd start
root 62098 62092 62092 64240 1 S+ 1 0:00.01
/usr/local/sbin/in.imapproxyd
Am I doing something wrong here?
the file /var/log/imapproxy_protocol.log is empty
/var/log/maillog says Connection to server failed
or could this be a firewall protecting the imap server??
