Subject: Pine and IMAP-based addressbook

Hey,

Has anyone been successful setting this up? I have my Global Addressbook
set to  {IMAPSERVER/ssl/imap/novalidate-cert}GlobalAddressBook, but Pine
is unable to read or write to it. When I try, I get

Can't initialize folder
"{IMAPSERVER/ssl/novalidate-cert}Mailboxes/GlobalAddressBook": Permission
Denied

Despite this error message, the file "GlobalAddressBook" actually gets
created on the IMAP server (running IMAP2001 in SSL mode). It has that
"FOLDER INTERNAL DATA" message in it.

The logs on the IMAP server show no errors.

Try pressing M S Z and following the steps from there. That should do it
for you.

Yes, I describe how to do it on my Power Pine page, here:

<http://www.ii.com/internet/messaging/pine/pc/#abookIMAP>

Here are the first two sentences:

 With Pine you can look up addresses in personal address books,
 global address books, and LDAP directories. The last two are
 usually set up and maintained by a system administrator and
 shared by many users.

Hope this helps!
