Hi there!
Whilst I was trying to install the new version of Roundcube, I ran into this error message while Roundcube is trying to connect to my mailserver (Debian/Dovecot).
roundcube: [11-Aug-2009 19:23:07 +0200]: IMAP Error: Empty startup greeting (xx.xx.xx.xx:993) (POST /roundcube/?_task=&_action=login)
Since the message came from Roundcube, I made the assumption that apparently Roundcube wants/forces me to have an actual startup greeting @ my mailserver :confused:
I don't like the idea of having an startup greeting defined within my mailserver. Is this really mandatory or can this check be skipped in some way?
Silly me :p
After rechecking config files I found out that I forget to add the 'ssl' in the 'default host' setting (a.k.a 'xx.xx.xx.xx' in stead of 'ssl://xx.xx.xx.xx' )
Doesn't explain the error message to me, but it did the trick!
OK, I am getting this error message with release 0.3-stable. Any ideas? I've checked my config over a bunch of times and all the settings are correct. The above solution did not work for my installation.

Humanator, have you tried using another e-mailclient (Thunderbird/Evolution/Outlook) ? Does that work? Are you using SSL/TLS?
Yep, my desktop email client still connects to the mail server just fine.
and you do have an secure connection? (SSL/TLS?) Or do you 'just' connect to port 143?
well my desktop client usually connects via SSL, and I just noticed that it uses port 993 rather than 465, so now it is connecting to IMAP properly.
Still seem to be having problems connecting to the SMPT server though. I get this error:
SMTP send: NOT OK(Failed to add recipient '[email protected]')
Oddly, even though the installer says that it isn't sending the test SMTP email properly sending an email from within RC itself still works fine.
I posted this over in the SVN thread but that is not correct - im using the newest 1.3 release.
Im getting the same error - im not using SSL on anything and I know my login credentials are correct. The client sitting on my mailserver is connecting without a problem, when I telnet to 192.168.0.102 143 im greeted with the IMAP prompt
The full error from the roundcube /logs directory is:
[20-Sep-2009 01:44:56 -0400]: IMAP Error: Empty startup greeting (192.168.0.102:143) (POST /roundcubemail/?_task=&_action=login)
I am runninng PHP: 5.2.6-3
I've checked out my config file and im still not sure where else to look - everything looks correct to me, any help would be appreciated!!
take a look at this Changeset 2972 ? Roundcube Webmail (http://trac.roundcube.net/changeset/2972), does the latest SVN slove the problem?

Yep, that fixed the problem for me. Thanks! :)
