Re: IMAP IDLE and MMP: msg#00075

mail.ims.general

Subject: Re: IMAP IDLE and MMP

Kelly is right, you have to place what you want displayed in the imap banner in the ImapProxyService.cfg file.

But, nearly all IMAP clients I've encountered send the capabilities command after they log in. In that case if you have IMAP IDLE enabled on the mailstore it will be advertised in the capability response.

IDLE must be enabled on the store - it is a function of the store to notify that new mail has arrived because only the store can know that. The fact that the IMAP connection to that store comes in through an MMP should be irrelevant. But you probably have to set the default:capability in the ImapProxyAservice.cfg file to make the MMP advertise it.

Helo,
As it was said in the thread " JES5 Outlook connector requirements?", enabling IMAP IDLE is very simple :
telnet localhost 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ NAMESPACE UIDPLUS CHILDREN BINARY UNSELECT SORT LANGUAGE IDLE XSENDER X- NETSCAPE XSERVERINFO X-SUN-SORT X-SUN-IMAP X-ANNOTATEMORE X- UNAUTHENTICATE XREFRESH AUTH=PLAIN] vs-ms-4.sipr-dc.ucl.ac.be IMAP4 service (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.3-4.01 (built Aug 3 2007; 32bit))
But this works only on the mailstore.
As we are in an environment vhere the users are talking to the MMP only, how could we enable IMAP IDLE in that case ?
The version of the Messaging server is the same on both back-end (mailstores) and front-ends (MMP) :
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.3-4.01 (built Aug 3 2007; 32bit)
libimta.so 6.3-4.01 (built 17:08:29, Aug 3 2007; 32bit)
SunOS mailstore-2-2 5.10 Generic_Patch i86pc i386 i86pc
Thanks,
