Description Thomas Witzenrath 2011-06-09 08:24:15 UTC 
There is a bug in mod_auth_imap2 which makes it impossible to authenticate against Dovecot versions 2.0.11 and 2.0.13, possibly even the whole dovecot-2 branch.

Output of mod_auth_imap2
[warn] [client XX.XX.XX.XX] mod_auth_imap: Premature server disconnect for user YYYYYYY@YYYYYYYY.YYY
[warn] [client XX.XX.XX.XX] mod_auth_imap: Server said: * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS\r\n

The problem in mod_auth_imap2 can be fixed by applying Nick Gieczewskis patch from

http://blog.basteagow.com/2011/04/02/mod_auth_imap2-dovecot-support-patch/

Since upstream does not seem to be interested in adding this patch (or changing anything at all since 2006), I think this should be added to portage.

Thank you

This is actually not a new package request. Re-assigning it to maintainers.
Comment 4 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2013-01-03 19:22:03 UTC 
Looks like this module is completely dead, it probably won't neither work for apache-2.4. I can neither find it package on any other distribution, doesn't it have any replacement for its functionality?
Comment 5 Sergey Popov gentoo-dev 2013-01-04 11:06:40 UTC 
Hm. Maybe www-apache/mod_authnz_external or other pam authorizator and, for example, pam_imap will be better replacement? Unfortunately pam_imap is not in tree yet :-/

Well, if you agree this patch is good enough to commit, we can go ahead and keep this alive a bit more, but I cannot decide that as I don't know much about programming
