One: I have never set up an IMAP server before, so I thought I would ask
first before blindly stumbling around. The problem I am want to solve is
this: my wife and I have a "joint" email account that we both want to access
(we also have our own personal accounts, but that's beside the point.) I
posed the question to my local LUG, and several suggested setting up a local
IMAP server so that we can both access it through KMail. Would you concur? If
so, is there a tutorial or something similar that gives instructions for
setting up dovecot locally? As I said, I've never set up an IMAP server
before, and I'm not really sure how to go about it. (I'm running Debian Sid,
so the packages are already installed, but I don't know what additional steps
need to be taken.)
Thanks for your help,
:Peter
