Odd. I did recently upgrade to PHP 4.4.0 so that very well may be the problem. I have no problems connected directly to imap on port 143, only when connecting to SSL. Since this is a local imap and roundcube I am currently just using regular imap.

Looks like a PHP socket problem. The error message "Operation now in

bug describing a similar problem:

You probably have to upgrade your PHP installation.

    I recently upgraded my imap server (dovecot) to the most recent
version. The imap server seems to be running correctly as I can connect
to it with regular clients (thunderbird). The server is definately
listening on port 993. However roundcube cannot connect for some reason.
The error is:

03-Mar-2006 12:13:56 -0800] IMAP Error: Could not connect to
ssl://smachimo./myserver/.us at port 993: Operation now in progress in 
on line 0


    I tried switching the settings to connect to localhost as well:

[03-Mar-2006 12:18:35 -0800] IMAP Error: Could not connect to
ssl://localhost at port 993: Operation now in progress in  on line 0


    Does anyone know what "Operation now in progress in  on line 0" means?
