Hi,
I am having a problem using imap as a mail source. My situation may be
an edge case. My mail server is inside my corporation's firewall, so I
ssh into the protected area, and then port forward the mail server's
imap port to another port on my local machine.
Using the following entry in my mail-sources
(imap :server "localhost"
:port 1430
:user "eshulte"
:stream starttls
:authentication login
:mailbox "inbox")
I am able to connect to the server, however when I try to authenticate
my authentication is rejected. I believe this is because gnus is
appending "@localhost" to my login name. Is it possible to turn this
behavior off?
Thanks -- Eric
