IMAP app : getting "endid" error : Rackspace mail server

[krussell101]

Trying to get imap app to work on AWS linux splunk host using Rackspace IMAP mail server.

Have worked through a number of errors using the following.

bin/splunk cmd python etc/apps/imap/bin/getimap.py --debug

Pretty sure it is logging in correctly to imap account, since I put a bad password in and got the following error: Could not log into server: secure.emailsrvr.com with password provided.

Despite the debug output below: I also know the mailbox is not empty.

Some debug output changed to protect the innocent.

I appreciate any and all assistance.

I ran into this same problem when not specifying the name of the folder to use... It looks to me that you are seeing the same problem.. Your Debug says the following.. DEBUG:root:folders=

I suggest changing your imap.conf files to folders = all and see if this solves it. It did for me.

Wow. It's been so long since I posted this I have to shake off the cobwebs to recall why I needed this app. 🙂 Haven't fully validated that all is working but it's certainly getting A LOT further than it was. So THANK YOU!
