Hello, Thanks everyone for your input. I'm really confused about these issues. However, I've found that it is something to do with my security settings. I've purchased a domain from hostpapa and created several mailboxes to separate various activities. After setting them up. I read that the SSL connections were strongly recommended. So I attempted to change the configuration and it's been down hill from there. So I'm having some success by returning to the not so secure config until I can get to my next 1 to 1 session. I've just had a nag about the imap path prefix which I'm guessing where my problems are to be found. It's not an good idea to being going in so deep while trying to get to grips with a new OS. But that's me, don't do anything by half. LOL! I'm hoping that you get this post too as I've obviously had email failures with all this going on.
The backslash forward slash really threw me. A real problem when communicating on an international level. I think you mean the right square bracket for UK users. So hopefully, I'll have a secure workable structure of email receive, store and delete system that meets my needs, soon!
