'Subscribe' to IMAP folders in Mail.app with a proxy
Authored by: lazytiger on Oct 08, '05 09:04:16AM

Could someone please give some more specific instructions on how to use this script? I've downloaded it, put it in /usr/local/bin, tweaked it for my server settings (incorrectly?), inserted the folders I want hidden, did the:

sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook /usr/local/bin/imapfilter.pl

on the command line, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. What has to be done to activate this script or to figure out if it's misconfigured? I left the local server as "localhost:1143" and changed the remote host to "mail.(mydomain).com:143". There was some complication using this script with SSL, but my server doesn't even support SSL IMAP connections as far as I know. Can I ignore the stuff about IO::Socket::SSL? With running "sudo" in the command above, does that mean perhaps it's now working for the root user but no one else? Do you have to restart Mail? Log out and back in again? Reboot? (I've already done all those things to no avail, but for future reference.)

Please help! Thank you.
