Check if IMAP is running on your box, you can verify this easly with 'telnet localhost 143' at the server or 'telnet server-ip 143' with your PC in the command prompt.

What's the exactly error message you get with webmail?

 

[imran_lk]

" connection to IMAP server failed "

pop3 and smtp mail works fine with all clients

helllllllllllllppppppppppppp!

 

[daveyw]

can you paste the output of

cat /etc/hosts

 

[imran_lk]

[root@server ~]# cat /etc/hosts

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
69.197.7.80 server.staminus.net

 

[imran_lk]

is it just me or is there something wrong here? localhost6?

 

[daveyw]

Add the line below to your '/etc/hosts' with e.g. 'nano -w /etc/hosts'.

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

Add this above ::1
It should be like this for you

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
69.197.7.80 server.staminus.net

Then try again your webmail
