Subject: Problem running with SLIP

Anyone had any luck getting Windows pc-pine and SLIP working with Trumpet 
winsock?

Pine is finding the host but failing to connect to the IMAP server. It 
continues trying and after the first minute, and each 15 secs further, 
asks if you want to continue trying.

I can telnet to the IMAP host from the winsock machine so it's alive and 
well.

Thanks for any help,

Seems to work okay for me.  Make sure that you have an entry for
IMAP2 in the Winsock "services" files.  I seem to recall adding a
line like:

imap2		143/tcp		#Internet Mail Access Protocol v2

to my services file quite some time back.

Cheers,
Ashok

Thanks Ashok, that's got it. Although I'm adding 

  imapd		143/tcp

rather than imap2.
