[courier-users] Outlook 2007 and IMAP

[VINOT Sébastien]

I'm using courier as an imap server with about 20 PCs (with outlook
2007 / 2003) on the same network (the server is outside). Everything
is fine for all of them except one !

On this PC, Outlook 2007 use to disconnect 2 or 3 times per day. The
problem is that if this happens when a mail is sent, the mail is
stored on the local draft folder and it is not sent.
This PC has not specific disconnection with other softwares and there
is no special configuration for this account.

The server is a gentoo and I install courier this summer (I don't know
how to get the version number)

Thanks for your help

Sebastien

If you installed via rpm, you can do:

$ rpm -q courier
courier-0.63.0-1

or, you can look in one of the config files:

$ cat /etc/courier/dsnheader.txt
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


This is a delivery status notification from [#ME#],
running the Courier mail server, version 0.63.0.

The original message was received on [#FROMTIME#]
from [#FROMMTA#]

It should also be written to the maillog when you restart Courier. I
don't know of a way to query the server directly for the version number.

I doubt very seriously it was installed via rpm. Gentoo uses emerge!

I am not familiar with Gentoo and I was too lazy to look up its package
manager. :)

So I just gave a couple of alternatives. "rpm -q" will work on rpm
systems and there should be a similar command for the other package
managers. Looking at the version number embedded in the dnsheader.txt
file will work for everyone.

To find out what courier packages you have installed, you can do "equery
l courier" (presuming you have gentoolkit installed which provides
equery). e.g.:

ben@pesto ~ $ equery l courier
[ Searching for package 'courier' in all categories among: ]
* installed packages
[I--] [ ] mail-mta/courier-0.59.0 (0)
[I--] [ ] net-libs/courier-authlib-0.62.2 (0)

On any platform, though, you should be able to just do "courier --version":

ben@pesto ~ $ sudo courier --version
