Hey guys,

Apologies if this is something that's been asked a lot, but I've been using Roundcube with my personal email since the webhosting provider switched to it about a year ago.  Overnight my Gmail, which allows me to reply as using the personal email through Roundcube, has alerted me that "You no longer have access to..."

I've deleted the email as an alternate address to reply as, and am trying to re-add it but am now stuck on putting in the correct SMTP Server & Port for the Roundcube email.  Can anyone help steer me in the right direction or point me to a thread?

I'm not sure why Gmail has suddenly stopped letting me reply using my custom email and domain- and that email/domain are all both online still.  I've not had this problem ever in the 10+ years of having the email set up like this.  Thanks!

Kyle

Hi everyone, Just a quick look back at an issue I had three weeks ago on an OVH VPS that I manage. One of my clients contacted me because he wasn't receiving any emails from his website's contact form anymore. There were no server-side errors, and SMTP was accepting everything normally, so at first I was looking in the wrong place. I ended up combing through the ManageSieve logs for an entire evening, and that's when I found the filter that was sending emails straight to the spam folder.

It turned out the problem stemmed from the Sieve rules I'd configured using fairly broad keywords to filter out typical spam.

The client in question runs a directory of porn sites, categorized into over 100 categories, and it was precisely the contact and partnership emails from this site that were ending up in spam. It makes sense when you look at the content of the rules... but it hadn't jumped out at me right away. I had to exclude the sender address from the contact form from the keyword filtering rules. Since then, there haven't been any issues. If anyone else has experienced similar false positives with ManageSieve due to overly generic keywords, I'd love to hear your feedback.

Its feasible since Roundcube is a IMAP webmail client, you just need to reach out to your family relative who setup Roundcube to get the details to put into that mail client.

My family relative setup a roundcube inbox , hosted on their server. e.q. https://xxxx.xx/roundcube

I use username and pass to login on PC ok

but I would like to use a java applet on sony ericsson with POP3/IMAP function to 'retrieve' messages from this roundcube inbox.

the list in post 1 is the info the applet requires... Isn't it feesible?

Roundcube is a web based IMAP client. Please contact your email provider for connection details for other clients.

Hi,

I'd like to setup a POP3/IMAP client in 'primitive' J2ME environment (old sony phone)

the simple j2me app is asking for
Address
Local host
Inbox type POP3/IMAP
Inbox host
Username
Password
Inbox port
SMTP host
SMTP password

which of these are bare minimum for accessing a roundcube inbox?

thanks in advance.

story: I've used html gmail for many years on java web browser opera mini but this was phased couple years ago, so i config gmail to forward email to temp yandex inbox which still has html but annoyingly yandex opted to enforce QR code 2FA login app.

Code Select Expand

// Path to a local mime magic database file for PHPs finfo extension.
// Set to null if the default path should be used.
$config['mime_magic'] = null;


Thanks a ton, the roundcube config did point to a wrong file. Setting it to the default path as you suggested fixed things.

Thanks a lot, I'll look into that!
