| Re: [PLUG] Update: Can't See "Sent" eMail |
So using an app on your system like Kmail or Clams Mail does NOT work but a web client like RoundCube does work... Questions... 1) Have you tried running the IMAP server at a debug / verbose level to see if it is detecting any write errors? 2) Same thing for Postfix 3) Is the same IMAP sever used by all client connections --- KP- On Jul 12, 2015 6:03 PM, Casey Bralla wrote: > > Naturally, once I posted I discovered a major piece of data: The messages are > coming through into the Sent folder, but there is no date field, so they are > going to the bottom of the message list, where I didn't see them. > > For some reason, KMail is not including a date field when it sends eMail.
