I see in your .oflieimaprc that you are using Apples iCloud - I simply don't get it to authenticate. Is your config still working?

Thanks, ' Rainer

It is working for me. The only thing I can think of is account age may gate which servers you can use since Apple has gone through so many service names (Mac, Me, iCloud). I had an account when there was only the Mac service. I haven't bothered to updated since the iCloud switch since it has kept working.

Thanks a lot - got it working by using this configuration:

[Repository RemoteiCloud]
type = IMAP
remotehost = imap.mail.me.com
port = 993
ssl = yes
sslcacertfile = ~/certs/Certificates.cer
remoteuser = iCloudEmailAddressBeforeTheAt
remotepasseval = get_keychain_pass(account="rainer.friCloudOfflineimap")
