I have hosted 'WebMail Lite 5 .NET' on Windows Web Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1

In the 'Default Mail Server Settings' under 'Common Settings', I have used the following:

Incoming mail: pop.gmail.com      Port:995   POP3
Outgoing mail: smtp.gmail.com      Port:465


When I login with a gmail account, the application throws me the following error:
Can't connect to POP3 server, check POP3 server settings.

In the log file, it says

[07:41:20.12] [INFO] Assembly version: 6.0.2.220.
[07:41:20.12] [INFO] Will resolve host "pop.gmail.com".
[07:41:20.13] [INFO] Host "pop.gmail.com" resolved to IP address(es) 209.85.225.109, 209.85.225.108.
[07:41:20.13] [INFO] Will connect to host "pop.gmail.com" on port 995.
[07:41:41.16] [INFO] Error: Socket connection has timed out. InnerException message follows: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 209.85.225.109:995


I changed the Incoming mail to:
imap.gmail.com    Port:993      IMAP4

When I login with a gmail account, the application throws me the following error:
Can't connect to IMAP4 server, check IMAP4 server settings.

In the log file, it says

[08:02:43.11] [INFO] Assembly version: 6.0.2.220.
[08:02:43.10] [INFO] Will resolve host "imap.gmail.com".
[08:02:43.12] [INFO] Host "imap.gmail.com" resolved to IP address(es) 74.125.45.108, 74.125.45.109.
[08:02:43.12] [INFO] Will connect to host "imap.gmail.com" on port 993.
[08:03:04.14] [INFO] Error: Socket connection has timed out. InnerException message follows: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 74.125.45.108:993


I don't face a problem when hosted in 'Windows 7' or 'Window server 2003' but 'windows server 2008 r2 SP1' is troubling me.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm using webmail lite 5 .net on a Windows 2008 R2 Sp1 server.
My mail server is local and is woring well.
I think you could have problems with "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security", have you tried disablig it?
Have you tried to telnet gmail ports from the Windows 2008 R2 server?

Hello,
       
      Thanks for your reply.
     
      I have the Windows firewall turned off. I googled and found that POP3 is deprecated in Windows server 2008. Is there a chance to work with IMAP in this case and how to get the webmail lite working in this server. I am really stuck up with this issue.

      Any ideas ?

Thanks.

I am surprised to be having no reply from Afterlogic support.

Anyway, after all my trials I arrived at a solution and the following is the summary:

Configure your firewall to allow the necessary programs. My windows firewall was disabled from day one though.

Later, the following:

Administrative Tools -> Local Security Policy.

Click on 'IP Security Policies on Local Computer' and in the right pane, right click on 'Packet Filter'

a) Click on 'Assign' to impose security.
b) Click on 'Un-assign' to remove security.

If telnet is installed, try the following in the commamd prompt:
telnet smtp.gmail.com 465   

If there is no error, you are done.

            
Thanks.

This forum is a community resource, and anyway, WebMail Lite doesn't come with free support from AfterLogic. If that's what you might need, consider using WebMail Pro instead.
