IMAP Mailserver check
GFI Network Server Monitor can check the availability of IMAP mail
servers. The IMAP Mailserver check initiates a handshake connection
to the remote IMAP port and through the replies received, it can verify
if the remote server’s IMAP protocol is working properly. This check
can also be configured to physically log on to a specific mailbox and
check for the number of emails present in a folder within the accessed
mailbox. This will verify that the IMAP service is indeed running,
