IMAP and Exim

[carbon8]

Hello...
We are running 11.6.1-CURRENT 15328 of cPanel with exim.
Is IMAP supported and if so where? I cannot find any imap options. I've tried setting up a mail account as IMAP and it fails so at this point I'm assuming it does not or is not configured to support IMAP.

There is an option to restart the imap server, but I cannot find anything to configure a imap server for any virtuals.

By default when you install Courier, it is configured with IMAP enabled.

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 143 (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP you think IMAP should be functioning on)

You should see something like:

* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE ACL ACL2=UNION STARTTLS] Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2005 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for distribution information.

If you don't get that, then either IMAP is not running on the server or a firewall is blocking access to port 143.

From a root shell prompt try:

netstat -an|grep 143|grep LISTEN

You should see something like:

tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

telnet works fine, thanks!
I will look to see if I need to open that port.
