Re: [Evolution] Trouble with SSL IMAP

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

As NotZed and I were just talking about on IRC, it seems to be a
gethostbyname_r error code. Not sure why it would be getting an error
there unless it is a libc bug (or the server really is down or
whatever).

what is the hostname of the server? What does the config.xmldb file have
as the setting? (it will be hex encoded so don't worry about not being
able to actually read it, just paste and we'll figure it out).
