[imp] why does Horde/IMP re-define mime types, and Dovecot issue(s)

Sun Aug 6 17:07:51 PDT 2006

Hello Chuck, thank you for your response.

Good to hear.

> It may be that your server is segfaulting.

That does not appear to be the case; there are no indications that Apache
or Dovecot are stopping, or dying. There are no indications in any of the
logs, nor any cores on the system. I just wiped the disks and performed a
fresh install of everything (OS too). The results are still the same.
There are no errors in the Apache logs while using the imp/test.php to try
to find a problem. But attempting to connect to the IMAP(s) server (Dovecot),
on the test.php page, the Dovecot reveals this in it's log:

####

NOTE: Killed with signal 15 is always whats emmited when shutting Dovecot
down. It's a normal response.

The IMP test.php test also returns the following:

    * Trying protocol imap/ssl, Port 993:

          Certificate for localhost: self signed certificate:
          /C=US/ST=Washington/L=Seattle/O=H.R. Communications
          Corp./OU=Security/CN=fast.dnswatch.com/emailAddress=secure at localhost

    * Trying protocol imap/ssl/novalidate-cert, Port 993:

          SUCCESS - INBOX has 170 messages (122 new 11 recent)

The following configurations were successful and may be used in your 
imp/config/servers.php file:

    Configuration 1

        'server' => 'localhost'
        'protocol' => 'imap/ssl/novalidate-cert'
        'port' => '993'

The following IMAP server information was discovered from the remote server:

    Namespace Information

        NAMESPACE: ""
        DELIMITER: /
        TYPE: personal

    IMAP CHILDREN support:

        SUPPORTED

    IMAP Charset Search Support:

        Server supports searching with the UTF-8 character set.

So the test tells me everything is OK.
But /actual/ usage/ attempts indicate otherwise. :(
Any other thoughts or suggestions? Or am I required to use 3.11?

Thank you for all your time and consideration in this matter.
