Mail daemon could not connect to my imap gmail account

Forum thread started by DarkWolf on Sun, 2013-01-27 18:36

Is it only for me or this is a bug? The network is working (I'm writing from webpositive now),smtp is working and I can connect to gmail with thunderbird. The error message is "Connection error: Network is unreachable". I'm on haiku nightly. My configuration for imap is:
Imap server: imap.gmail.com
User name: my_user_name@gmail.com
Connection type: SSL.

edit: I forgot to say that I'm using pure gcc4 build.

From this page:

http://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/R1/Alpha4/ReleaseNotes

"The IMAP protocol for the mail daemon replacement (MDR) has been removed from this release, due to concerns of losing server side data."

You could use "BeAM" instead, you can install it from terminal: 

installoptionalpackage -a beam

(if i remember correctly)
