Posteo Webmail |
Greetings, help-emacs! Currently, I´m writing this from a webmail
interface for posteo.de which is not ideal. I wanted to see if it was
possible to configure Emacs to use my posteo email and one other alias
together to sort my emails. Looking around I cannot find good
documentation for configuring Emacs with posteo. I´m barely beginning
Emacs and can barely remember a few shortcuts on the keyboard.
Below is pasted from the posteo.de help page for help with email
clients-
Server name: posteo.de
Username: yourusername@posteo.net
Password: Your personal password
Important: The connection to Posteo is always encrypted (STARTTLS, TLS
or SSL).
The outgoing mail server (SMTP) requires authentication.
In case your email client asks: The password will be checked “normal” or
“plain”. The password can also be transmitted unencrypted, because it is
requested over a connection that is already encrypted.
The port settings depend upon the type of encryption:
Outgoing mail server (SMTP):
With STARTTLS using port 587, or
with SSL/TLS encryption using port 465
Incoming mail server (IMAP):
With STARTTLS using port 143, or
with SSL/TLS encryption using port 993
Incoming mail server (POP3):
With STARTTLS using port 110, or
with SSL/TLS encryption using port 995
The standard IMAP folders we have set up:
For sent emails: Sent
For deleted emails: Trash
For drafts: Drafts
Could anyone help me with configuring my ~/.gnus to get it up and
running? I would use icedove if possible, but GuixSD doesn´t seem to
have it available in their repository yet. Any help is much
appreciated. Thanks!
