I'm a reasonbly experienced programmer and I've read all the FAQs and
information I could find on the Web, but I can't get Evolution to work
with IMAP.
I can access my mail using IMAP with "pine" (a mail reader from the
University of Washington). The "fetchmail" command also works with
IMAP. But I can't get Evolution to work. I specified the server
(po.sandcraft.com) and my user name (veenstra) and when it asks for
my password, I type that in. But Evolution does not read the mail.
As it happens, I can also access my mail file directly over NFS because
the filesystem that the mail is written to (on the mail server) can be
automounted onto my machine. I can get Evolution to read my mail
by specifying "Local delivery" and giving the pathname to the mail
file. But for my own reasons I would like to use IMAP and I can't get
that to work.
I've read the FAQ that says to exit evolution and run "killev" after
changing the settings. I did that and it still does not work.
How do I debug what is going on?
