Squirrel Mail

Anyone here set up Squirrel mail?

I've got it on my web server, but can't get it to work. I'm trying to make it work with ntlworld, but I just get this error when I try to log in:

Error connecting to IMAP server: smtp.ntlworld.com.
110 : Connection timed out

I've also tried imap.ntworld.com but I get the same error.

Any ideas?

Unless NTL support IMAP (and it looks like they don't), it won't work.

My University uses SquirrelMail as the default mail system. I have to use imap.<uni>.ac.uk to read my mail in outlook, the mailserver is hoste don the main domain for my uni. I'm not sure how you use it to read mail from a server as I only use it as a client.

I just checked with Thunderbird, you need to connect to imap.ntlworld.com on port 143 with your username being your ntl email prefix, i.e. the username@ntlworld.com part.

I did try that, but will double check the port and have another go.

Cheers!
