IMAP Configuration in Outlook

[hunter42]

Hi,

I am trying the new IMAP interface for Alfresco. Unfortunatly I do not get it to work.
I enabled the IMAP support as shown in the wiki. I marked a space as IMAP enabled. But the configuration in Outlook gives me headaches.
I configured an Emial account as Admin@alfresco.com. I set it to IMAP. I put as host: localhost. Outgoing: my providers SMTP server. User/Password credentials of the Admin account.

Its not working.

Outlook returns: Error connection to server.

Any idea ?

I installed Thunderbird. With Thunderbird it was running in 10 seconds 🙂 I know why I LOVE open source !!

Now, I verified the Metadata extraction bug. When I drag and drop an e-mail to a directory inside my document library the message is an ".elm" file. I have to click it, Thunderbird opens and I see my original message. Is it planned (after the bugfix), that I can somehow see my text without opening Thunderbird ? And: The message contains an attachment. This attachment is inside the ELM File. Is it planed to add the attachments as sperate documents to the document library or will they be part of the message ?

Additionally it seems, that the text part of the mail is indexed and searchable, but the attachment is NOT. Is that normal ?


Thx,

Michael
