We use outlook at work to connect to the local mail server. Connections to the outside world are somewhat restricted and only port 8080 is open. I have contacted our IT department to see if there is a non-standard port open for IMAP but it would appear that all others are closed.
At the moment, my only solution is to access mail via IMAP over HTTP - ie from a webmail interface. This works fine, but it is a PITA.
Our IT department have said that I can try to connect to my IMPA server 'if I can find a workaround'. Any thoughts on how I can get outlook to conect to my IMAP server via port 8080 instead of the default 143?
