IMAP and iPhone

[mhouwen]

Hello,

I try to connect my iPhone to my b2
My b2 has the hostname BUBBA2

Previous it worked fine on bubba 1-server

Now it won't connect

I already tried direct via IP adress
I also tried to restart the bubba, or issue as root:
/etc/init.d/dovecot restart

Note: SSL - password and port 993 are set

Please provide help

Thanx, Marcus

Current package versions
Package name Package version
bubba-frontend 1.3.1
bubba-backend 1.3.3
bubba-album 1.3.0
filetransferdaemon 0.50.19+b3
squeezecenter 7.4.1.dfsg1-6

perhaps try bubba2.localhost?

Hi

I tried
bubba2.local
AND
bubba2.localhost

both don't work

any other suggestions / solutions are welcome

I can make a preset on the IMAP-path
but what should I fill in ?

SOLVED !!!

Tricked Bubba2 AND iPhone (with MS-outlook )

Problem was that iPhone somehow did not want to accept SSL from Bubba2

I (ab)used MS-Outlook (since I still use the NAB from MS)
I temporarily added the IMAP account to MS-Outlook.
Synced and confirmed the SSL in MS-outlook
Synced and confirmed the iPhone (make sure COM - iTunes Outlook Addin is running)
Removed account from MS-outlook
Added account in iPhone manually
and now the Bubba2 and iPhone accept each other.

and the lived happily after...

Thnx, Marc

I had about the same problem. I was trying to connect imap from the internet. At the first connect between iPhone and imap, you must see a warning about the self signed signature and confirm it. If you don't get this warning then something got wrong and it might be good idea to remove your bubba-imap-account on the iphone and start again, which i did


MY SETTINGS on the iPhone

Hostname someserver.dyndns.org
User User-for-imap
Password password-for-imap

in the advanced setting

SSL on
Identifikation Password
IMAP-Path /
ServerPort 993
