Re: IMAP4 not working?

Actually I just tested this cmd again(telnet 127.0.0.1 143) on the server
that was not working, it works now(not sure why). I will now test outlook
express again and see if it works..

Ok, so you can confirm that we have "something" listing on port 143 on the
SBS server, then you should be able to connect to the server from the server
trough telnet/OE, please do that to confirm that we have the right services
listening on that port.
From the server start a CMD and type:
telnet 127.0.0.1 143 and hit enter

In case of that working we can confirm that IMAP is working correctly on the
SBS server and you need to configure/re-configure your firewall. In case
that you do not get a IMAP prompt, we have something else except Exchange
listening on that port.

yes I did get that response. So what could that mean? firewall possibly? I
followed directions directly from Watchgaurds site on how to open up port
143
for IMAP, so i dont see how the FW cond be configured wrong..?

Ok, that's odd, the only thing you normally do is change the IMAP
services
from "disabled" to "enabled" and start it, no other configuration is
needed.
I have just tried this on my on server and it works perfect of course.
Please verify that the IMAP services is listening on port 143 an on the
correct interface by starting command prompt and type:
netstat- na|find ":143"
You should receive one line with TCP 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING if
it
is correct

Have you tried to access the server from the server, using telnet or
even
better using Outlook Express?

Firewall is configured properly for IMAP, I have started the IMAP
service
and
got the IMAP Virtual Server in exchange manager running, however if
i
try
to
"telnet mail.xxx.com 143" i do not get through. I am assuming that
means
there is something on the server that i am missing. I do not know
what
else
to try, IMAP is enabled and the firewall is configured properly, any
ideas
would be greatly appreciated!!

Is there anywhere else, other than Exchange System Manager that IMAP
needs
to be configured or enabled? Somewhere in IIS perhaps or AD?
