Hi
I am trying to access my mail through a third party email client (Thuderbird) using IMAP. I have run the conversion utility against my mail file and added an internet site document for IMAP. I have configured Thunderbird with the server name and my login details. It starts downloading the email headers successfully until it gets about 75% through at which point the server crashes. Once I restart the server, if I try to download the remaining 25% then it just crashes the server again.
I can see all of the headers in the Thunderbird inbox view which have been downloaded up to that point but when I try to open one I get the error (once I have restarted the server of course):
“Could not connect to mail server; the connection was refused”
I tried to use Outlook 2003 as the mail client but got the same results.
If anyone has any ideas then it would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Lee
