Dear Sergey,
I doubt that this is a bug ... but it's not behaving as I was
expecting. Can you tell me what's going wrong?
Many thanks!
Iain Houston
I have installed mailutils from the Ubuntu 12.10 repo and specified the
rmail-mailmove-program as either /usr/bin/movemail or
/usr/bin/movemail.mailutils but in either case emacs reports
rmail-parse-url: Emacs movemail does not support imap protocol
as a result of M-x rmail RET. I infer from this that emacs movemail is being
used and that the mailutils movemail is being ignored.
In my ~/.emacs.d/init.el I have:
;; Reading mail
(setq rmail-movemail-flags (list "--tls"))
(setq rmail-movemail-program "/usr/bin/movemail.mailutils")
;; (setq rmail-movemail-program "/usr/bin/movemail")
(setq rmail-primary-inbox-list
(quote("imap://mylocal%40jazz2.eu:address@hidden")))
I verified that the movemail worked on its own before I configured init.el as
follows:
sudo movemail -p -v 'imap://mylocal%40jazz2.eu:address@hidden' test-mbox
movemail: number of messages in source mailbox: 1
movemail: number of processed messages: 1
movemail: number of errors: 0 / 0
