IMAP problem Firewall on?

[MrFix]

Hi folks,

 

I'm trying to receive some mails with the IMAP module in PHP. And it won't work yet.

 

I keep getting the following error:

 

Message: Unknown: Connection failed to 213.51.146.46,21: No route to host (errflg=2)

 

I changed the serveradress (mail.home.nl) in the IP but that only worked for 1 error. This error is not gonna give up ^^.

 

I work with CodeIgniter and I'm using the following class: http://www.phphulp.nl/php/script/overig/cl...p3-reader/1356/ (dutch btw)

But I don't think it has anything to do with the code.

 

Testing Environment:

http://peterwessels.heliohost.org/Unified/...p/imap/connect/

 

The code:

 

Controller

 

<?
   function connect()
       {
       
           $data['username'] = "adres";
           $data['password'] = "wachtwoord";
           $data['server'] = "213.51.146.46";
           $data['port'] = "21";
           $data['mailboxName'] = "inbox";
           
           
           $this->load->model('Imap_model');
           $this->Imap_model->Imapmail($data);
                       
           $connect = $this->Imap_model->connect();
           if($connect == FALSE)
           {
               $this->load->view("failure");
           }
       
       }
?>

 

 

Model:

<?

public function Imapmail($data)
   {
       extract($data);
       
       
       $this->username = $username;
       $this->password = $password;
       $this->server = $server;
       $this->port = $port;
       $this->options = $options;
       $this->mailboxName = $mailboxName;
       return(true);
   }
   public function connect()
   {
       $options = "";
       if(!empty($this->options) && is_array($this->options))
       {
           while(list($key, $option) = each($this->options))
           {
               $options .= "/" . $option;
           }
       }
       
       $adress = '{' . $this->server . ':' . $this->port . $options . '}' . $this->mailboxName;
       $mbox = @imap_open($adress, $this->username, $this->password);
       $this->connection = $mbox;
       if($mbox)
       {
           return true;
       } else
       {
           return false;
       }
   }
?>

 

I hope you can check the firewall, if you can enable me to receive e-mails through imap.

 

With kind regards,

It's not our fault: port 21 on 213.51.146.46 is closed. See for yourself.

[MrFix]

My bad. Sorry. But it is strange that my E-mail client (thunderbird) does work with that ip with that port.

[Krydos]

Isn't IMAP usualy port 143? I thought port 21 was usually FTP, but I guess you can use whatever port for whatever you want as long as it's open and both the server and the client both know what protocol they are using to communicate.

[Guest xaav]

Yeah, but he's trying to connect on port 21.
