Like I mentioned in my last post I bought myself an IPhone. Before my IPhone I had my blackberry and I got used to being notified when I got new mail. On the IPhone however IMAP only has 15minutes updates, so you have to wait and it’s not really 15 minutes …<\/p>\n
The nice people from zarafa created z-push. An opensource php application that mimics active-sync. I installed on my server and made some small changes. Now it works on my imap account and I get notified of new mails in my inbox.<\/p>\n
I did however have to do some minor changes in the php code.<\/p>\n
In config.php changed backend to imap<\/p>\n
\n$BACKEND_PROVIDER = “BackendIMAP”;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
in backend\/imap.php changed to retrieval to only retrieve the INBOX to check for changes (I have +100 folders)<\/p>\n
\n$list = @imap_getmailboxes($this->_mbox, $this->_server, “%”);\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
in backend\/diffbackend.php I changed the default cutoffdate (this showed up 0 in the logging)<\/p>\n
\nfunction getCutOffDate($restrict) {
\n $restrict = SYNC_FILTERTYPE_3DAYS;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\nNow my automatic notify works \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Like they mention in the forums, it does drain your battery life on the IPhone. So be carefull when you turn it on!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
