Hi everyone.
I wanted a thread where everyone would discuss their failed/successful attempts at using IMAP storage on Asterisk 1.4.
I know there’s a few guys here who try, including me, I’d like to know distro, version of asterisk (official or SVN latest), IMAP Server, patches applied to asterisk to make it work, version of c-client (UW-toolkit used to built), changes to UW-toolkit makefile etc.
Don’t forget to mention anything that might be event remotely significant, no matter how trivial, or how far-fetched it might seem.
As for me I’m on my n-th attempt, still very unsuccessful.
I’m always on Debian Etch.
Always build against UW imap-2006e (c-client files)
Attempt 1:
Asterisk official 1.4
Dovecot IMAP server w/ virtual SQL users
Unpatched
->Always unable to access the server
Attempt 2:
Asterisk official 1.4
Cyrus 2.1 IMAP server in Maildir format
Unpatched Asterisk
->Cyrus would barely even work, I ditched it pretty quick
Attempt 3:
Asterisk official 1.4
Courier-IMAP server in mbox format
Unpatched Asterisk
->Always unable to access the server
Attempt 4:
Asterisk official 1.4
Courier-IMAP server in Maildir format
Patched asterisk: bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8808
Used: app_voicemail_minorfixes_take2_8808.diff
-> Same as before, unable to access server
Next up, going to try Dovecot again with the patch applied.
It’s the same error message over and over no matter the client, config, etc.

Any success stories around?
