Hello,

I'am using IMAP on a Alfresco 4.0D on RHEL. All works good on a test server.
I have update yesterday the test server with data from production. We want to enable Imap on the production server…
I have recreate the index… all works good but not the imap server :

When I start the test server with new data I get new message :

does server.entreprise.custom.ch resolve on the box running alfresco?

The IP of the server has changed in the DNS 1 day ago… 😞
I correct it and all is ok.

Thank you mrogres.
