i use outlook 2007 as mail client, and a created and configured an account with :
out-coming server : 192.168.1.231 and incoming server 192.168.1.41

but i didn't get my imap directories in outlook and i didn't get any mail.

is there other configurations that need to be done??
please help

Your configuration looks good.

Check your alfresco.log file for any errors to do with imap.

Then I'd look at your settings in Outlook.     Have you, for example, refreshed your folders?

as you can see the imap service started successfully.

i have tried many times to refresh the directories in my  outlook account , but it didn't work.
in fact, i used a virtual machine with  (windows 2003 server as OS) which i added the role of mail server (pop3, smtp).
i can see my emails if i use pop3 instead of imap.( if i put my server 's ip as  both  the incoming and the outcoming server in outlook). but if i use my alfresco server as imap server i didn't get anything.

my outlook configuration :
i have created a mail box "mahdi" on my server named alfresco-mail.org , i created an account with address mahdi@alfresco-mail.org  on outlook , used 192.168.1.231 as smtp server (port 25)  and 192.168.1.41(alfresco server) as imap server ( port 1143).
what's wrong with my configuration??




i have a question : how to create the mail account ? and where?
