Fixed. Thanks Fillip :D

This sounds like a nice mod, I got a query though. We do not send a lot of mails out but we do send the occasional birthday emails. Would this addon be able to handle the bounced emails from the birthday cron too ?

Yeah it will :)


Fillip

We use gmail and this mod can't connect to gmail imap. Is there a way to connect gmail imap servers and fetch bounced mails?

It should be possible, though I would very strongly not recommend using the same email as you use for actual communication (if you have already set up a separate "bounce" GMail account for your forum then I apologise for the emphasis, I just wanted to prevent possible data loss should you get it working) - vBMail will delete all the email it has collected from the mail server in order to speed up future fetching.

Without seeing an error message (you can see any connection errors by manually running the collect bounced mail scheduled task) I can't help, unfortunately :(


Fillip

Thank you for the emphasis. We use seperate bounced mail account for gmail.

Here is the error:


I guess imap function is different for gmail.

So isn't it possible to use VbMail with gmail?

Thanks..

From what I can tell, you entered 1 as the IMAP Port in DragonByte Tech: vBMail - Bounced Mail Settings.

Please correct that to 993, which is the correct port for connecting to GMail's IMAP server, then let me know if that works :)


Fillip

I saw 1 and edited my post immediately after posting. 993 does not work.

I tried to enter "imap.gmail.com:993/ssl" and many combinations left port number blank if it helps. Thats why you saw 1 as the port. before my edit.

Ps. I tried vbmail with a regular imap server and collected emails.

Try these exact settings:

IMAP Host: imap.gmail.com
IMAP Port: 993
Use SSL: Yes

I'm not sure whether you just told me you tried to enter "imap.gmail.com:993" in the port field, but try these settings regardless :)
