Does Kmail support yahoo imap?

Mon Dec 13, 2010 8:27 am
Does kmail support yahoo imap? I see here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo_mail ... TPs_access

That yahoo has some non-standard imap requirements having to
do with “ID ("GUID" "1")”.

Has kmail been updated to deal with this?

Where are the kmail release notes?

thank You.

I suggest you contact the KDE PIM developers directly for this information. I don't think it is likely that KMail will have this change at this time, as it would probably cause incompatibilities with regular IMAP servers.

I Just tested and didn't notice any issue, everything went well without any hack.
Even with KMail 1, everything should work.


See the two attached screenshots and check your own configuration

Beside all that: it is pretty much a Yahoo-issue/problem.
Just like Microsoft creating it's own standards. Therefore i think Yahoo should help it's customers out. (Of course it is wonderful everything seems to work.)
