switching to using mutt (error)

charbelsako · 11-22-2020, 12:34 PM

Code:

IMAP command failed: a0013 NO [NONEXISTENT] Invalid folder: Sent (Failure)
IMAP command failed: a0014 NO [NONEXISTENT] Invalid folder: Trash (Failure)
IMAP command failed: a0015 NO [NONEXISTENT] Invalid folder: Drafts (Failure)
IMAP command failed: a0016 NO [NONEXISTENT] Invalid folder: Junk (Failure)

Code:

 set folder="imaps://imap.gmail.com:993/"
 set spoolfile="+INBOX"
 set record="+[Gmail]/Sent"
 set postponed="+[Gmail]/Drafts"
 set trash = "+[Gmail]/Trash"

 mailboxes =INBOX =SENT =Trash =Drafts =Junk

I am getting an error when i try to access any of record, postponed and trash.
inbox is absolutely ok. I'm just wondering what I have done wrong.
The error is shown above the code.

NONEXISTENT means the file is non-existent.

I know that. But the file should exist. I even tried writing the full path imaps...

What is needed, here, is someone else who already uses Mutt with Gmail via IMAP. Have you thought about storing your mail locally, at yours ?

I will not say, that it simplified the configuration a lot, but it simplifies considerably, however. You can still use IMAP(s) or Pop3(s) – the two do not make much difference in this case. This is an off-topic remark. But you should take it into consideration anyway.

I guess you got those settings from one of
the many wikis/posts on the web. From what
I can tell, this configuration worked up
until a couple of years ago, but then broke
for some reason.

So I don't think there is anything wrong with
your specific setup - something is just different
now.
