Dekko 0.5.0 under focal

ma

I have installed the latest version of Dekko (0.5.2) on my OP5T (noble), but the validation cannot be completed (the circle spins endlessly). I would like to integrate a very simple IMAP/SMTP mailbox, which I have successfully linked to other systems with identical settings.

The attempts described with an older version or restarts were also unsuccessful.

What could be the problem, and what else can I try? Thank you.

@ma On my Phone running UT 24.04 and Dekko 0.5.2 the mailboxes I have connected are working like expected (posteo.de and web.de)
What provider do you use? Maybe it needs a special verification. AFAIK Google needs a setting called "trust third-party-apps" (or something like that), maybe that's also needed with your provider.

ma

@kristatos My provider is Vodafone, which has no special features. The settings are identical to those of my other email programs.

My email provider requires TSL encryption. Is this possible with dekko? Has anyone been able to set up dekko with Vodafone?

@ma said in Dekko 0.5.0 under focal:

My email provider requires TSL encryption

did you mean TLS encryption ? if yes, world+dog supports TLS, so any recent mail agent will support it.

ma

@gpatel-fr Yes, I meant TLS encryption. I'm still looking for the reason why dekko isn't working (I've already tried all the settings ...).

I got intrigued, downloaded Dekko and tried to set it with a vanilla imap account, one that I have indeed used with several other setups and it got stuck on the connection information validation.
If it's the same for you, maybe you could open an issue at

https://gitlab.com/dekkan/dekko/-/issues

because it looks suspiciously like a recently closed issue whose fix did not seem to be clearly understood. Maybe it was not really completely fixed ?

ma

@gpatel-fr Thank you for your effort! Unfortunately I don't have a gitlab account to report the issue.

@ma

a gitlab account can be created for free, all that is needed is a mail address to get the account confirmed.

Err, actually, I had closed the app without mercy while the validation was still spinning, I have opened it again today and... lo and behold ! all the mails were displayed. So it was just a problem of initial setup not validating for some (bad...) reason, while all parameters were correct.
