<p>I would recommend IMAPS (port 993) instead of unencrypted IMAP (port 143) because phones are so vulnerable to sniffing. But if the server sees *something* then lack of a port 993 punch-thru might be not be the problem.</p>

I've got a strange problem that recently cropped up, hope someone has a<br>
good idea.<br>
<br>
I have my Android phone getting mail from my home server through IMAP.<br>
This has worked correctly for several years. I recently replaced my<br>
router and now I can't get my INBOX on my phone. I can get other mail<br>
folders without issue, but my INBOX never refreshes properly. I believe<br>
the only port I had open on my old router was 143 (I've also got 25 and<br>
110 open, just to be sure).<br>
<br>
On the mail server (Linux), I get an error whenever IMAP tries to<br>
connect: Connection closed: Connection reset by peer bytes=580/47779<br>
<br>
Anyone able to help me figure out exactly what's happening?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
