Title: AOL email via IMAP4 on 6KL QTmail 2.1
Post by: brother on November 08, 2004, 07:46:55 pm

Hello,

I am trying to setup my 6000L to pull down my AOL email over the Internet using AOL's Open Mail Access setup, which requires IMAP.

I was able to setup QTmail 2.1 (standard mail app on 6K) to send out an email through my AOL account but I can't pull down my email. QTmail is able to connect and authenticate and even pull down the AOL folder structure but just when it is about to pull down the mail, it comes back with the following error messages:

a004 NO Command 'SEARCH' not supported

a006 NO Command 'SEARCH' not supported

a008 NO Command 'SEARCH' not supported

a010 NO Command 'SEARCH' not supported

a012 NO Command 'SEARCH' not supported

Does anyone know what this means?
Is there a way to get QTmail 2.1 to pull AOL mail via IMAP?
If not, can anyone recommend a mail app with IMAP support that might work?

Thanks

Okay ... after a weeks worth of emails with Sharp and AOL , I've given up.
It appears that the QTmail 2.1 is performing a search query for new emails to compare to ones already downloaded and this search function isn't support on AOL's IMAP implementation.  Consequently, I'm not able to pull down any emails.

Does anyone know a good email program that run on the 6000L in QVGA mode with IMAP support?
