Sam and discussed this off-list. I can't access my gmail account using
movemail either. I enabled IMAP in google settings first. After that
the command below should work, as far as I can see.
movemail -p 'imap://mygmail.address%40gmail.com@imap.gmail.com'
Test.mbox password
The connection times out. I tried adding "--tls" and I tried converting
the dots in my email address to %2s. I also tried putting the port at
the end of the imap URL, ":993", if I do that I get "Input/output error"
instead of a timeout. Sam gets a different error "Invalid reply from
the remote host".
Does anyone know what the problem is here?
BR,
Robert Thorpe
