FAQ: receiving emails through IMAPS

Quick interface question: in the postmaster mail account page (Admin->PostMaster Mail Account), how do you setup an email to receive messages through imaps? From the documentation, I believe it can be done using procmail/formail, but I was wondering if it can be done right from the otrs web interface. I guess what confuses me is that under [Mail Account Management], I can only add a POP3 account. And then, under [Note] there is a form-looking thingie that seems to do what I want but I do not see how can I make anything I enter there be committed/assigned to the user. Am I being clear as stirred mud as usual?

Hi Mauricio,
Under Admin->PostMaster Mail Account (/index.pl?Action=AdminMailAccount) you
can choose IMAP, IMAPS, POP3, POP3S, take a look at

Please do your best to clearly explain what you're trying to accomplish,
that way we can better help you

For some reason, I don't have an IMAPS option under the AdminMailAccount
drop down. I'm running the windows version 2.4 beta. I also do not see this
option on the linux version. Is there something that needs to be configured
in order for you to be able to have the IMAPS show up as an option?
Thanks!

Run perl otrs\bin\otrs.checkModules and see what perl modules you're missing
for IMAPS. Then install those...
Good luck!

Incidentally, that was my own problem. Thanks for the info!
