No matter what, Geary will always complain about not having a internet connection on the L5 when trying to set it up. Anyone else having this issue?
I do not use the app Geary
but you could use tcpdump
in the terminal or even better in a SSH session to nail this down.
What email client are you using, if I may ask?
purism@pureos:~$ apt info mutt*
Package: mutt
Version: 2.0.5-4.1+deb11u2
Priority: optional
Section: mail
Maintainer: Mutt maintainers <mutt@packages.debian.org>
Installed-Size: 7,240 kB
Provides: imap-client, mail-reader
...
in the terminal
app.
Do you mean that you do have an internet connection but Geary fails to complete setup, complaining that you don’t have an internet connection?
I don’t know whether it helps at all but you can probably create the setup (config file for each account) by hand. It’s just a text file - but you would probably need one working example to work from.
Hello, I have set up Geary and I could receive/send emails without this error message. I use a home email app, not a cloud provider.
Did you set up the accounts correctly ? I say that because I remember having issues during IMAP/SMTP setup when I filled a name in the name
field and had error messages until I removed this parameter.
