[horde] Re: Re: Anyone tried IMP with Exchange 2000 IMAP?

[David Vella]

Hi,

I Managed to make everything work and also to login to an IMAP (non SSL)
mailbox.

I followed your instructions and set up the same dir-structure etc. I can
login non problem (from test page and not test page) to an IMAP non SSL
account.

Now I am testing with Exchange 2000 IMAP SSL however I cannot manage at all.
There are no firewalls or anything.  I tried ALL combinations :(
Unfortunately Exchange 2000 IMAP does not seem to offer any logging
functionality:((

Anyone knows if there is any extra special connection string to connect to
Exchange 2000 IMAP?

Now for the BAD news.

What I managed till now was on a test machine. Now I am trying to install on
my live server however having loads of problems which I believe are because
of PHP however not Horde/IMP (at least till now).

I am trying to install the ISAPI PHP plugin but after that I try the
horde/test.php it just never returns anything until a timeout happens,
trying to stop the IIS service does not work, the WWW fails to stops. It is
like something paused during the process, I tried interactive with desktop
but still nothing.

Same thing exactly happens when using the php.exe instead of the
php4isapi.dll
