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.
 
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE AUTH=PLAIN ] Dovecot DA ready.




yea the port is open and its running bro...!
 
" connection to IMAP server failed "

pop3 and smtp mail works fine with all clients

helllllllllllllppppppppppppp! :)
 
[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
 
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 :)
