Can someone tell me which page to click instead of a cron to get the mailbox working? I've set everything up, tested the connection, and sent an email. Where does it go? It's showing up for all other messages, for pending messages, etc. I can't find anything.

 

I found this article: https://www.easycron.com/cron-job-tutorials/how-to-set-up-cron-job-for-easyblog but it didn't give any results

Configuration of the mailbox, test => OK

We tested the mailbox-publishing extensively and can confirm that it works.

According to everything I know about it, you MUST setup a cron in order to make the mailbox-publishing automation work. 

Easiest is to set it up as type "URL" and execute it i.e. every 5 minutes:

What server control panel do you use? Can you configure CRON-tasks there?

Ah, maybe that's it: In the manuals, it says "task=cron" but it should be "&cron=true"...

At least on our test-hosts it works with "&cron=true"

"Task=cron" or "&cron=true" both work. The problem was with "max_execution_time" in PHP, which I solved by placing a php.ini script on the server.

Yes, that's how it works at home.pl. I think they've also created their own control panel.

I use easycron.com for my cron because it's a very complex system on the server.

I keep everything "easy" :-)

Good! Glad to hear that you could solve this issue. 

I will remember your solution for further cases. Maybe others will face the same issue.
