I have protonmail-bridge installed following instructions I found in a post here but I cannot get protonmail set up in Geary.
I have tried to manually configure imap and smtp in geary and also in settings online accounts new imap and smtp but keep getting errors.
Is there a tutorial for this?
Will protonmail work in Geary?
When I try to configure IMAP in settings new online accounts
IMAP Server 127.0.0.1
username "myusername"
Password "my password"
I get error "Connection refused"
In the proton-bridge when I use the "info 0" command it returns my account information and a long password that is not the password I use to login with, I assume that is the password the bridge is using to decrypt messages. I have used that password as well as the password I login in with to no avail. Why is my connection refused?
I followed how to install bridge following the tutorial there:
https://www.reddit.com/r/PinePhoneOffici...pinephone/
After I get log in the Protonmail Bridge:
mobian@mobian:~/Downloads/proton-bridge$ ./proton-bridge --cli
Welcome to ProtonMail Bridge interactive shell

Here is how my server settings are in Geary:
Service provider: 0.0.1
Save draft email on server, check
Save sent email on server, check
IMAP server 127.0.0.1:1143
Connection security StartTLS
Login name yourprotonmail@protonmail.com
SMTP server 127.0.0.1:1025
Connection security StartTLS
Login Use same login as receiving
***When setting up IMAP and SMTP, I used the password found by typing >>>info in the Protonmail-bridge command line***
EDIT: changed "Connection security" for Geary from "none" to "StartTLS" for IMAP and SMTP
It has been a little while since I've set that up so I might have forgotten some steps or details but that worth a try.
Hope that can help.
