The IMAP TCP/IP application protocol is more secure and feature-full than the old POP3 protocol built-into the Synchronet Mail Server. The IMAP protocol (version 4) can be used for retrieving mail from a Synchronet system by using Deuce's imapservice.js
.
To enable this service, add the following lines to your ctrl/services.ini
file, if they are not already in there:
[IMAP] Enabled=true Port=143 Command=imapservice.js
Or configure in the Synchronet Control Panel for Windows, like so:
NOTE: The IMAP protocol is more complex than the POP3 protocol built-into the Synchronet Mail Server and this service script is not as well tested. Test results or patches should be sent to Deuce.
