LOGIN username password LOGIN NO Error in IMAP command received by server. ... additional information: postfix is mta, mail delivery works, uw-imap worked before I unmerged it and merged courier-imap. I could not find the error in the configuration. The installation notes say "You MUST run the configure script as normal user, not root", maybe this is the problem? (http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/INSTALL.html)
We pass a flag so that ./configure can be run as root. What shows up in your system logs when you try to log in?
only this: Jul 24 20:50:58 [imapd] Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] Jul 24 20:51:40 [imapd] DISCONNECTED, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], headers=0, body=0
I will be adding courier-imap-1.5.1 to portage in the next couple of days. At first glance in the log, it looks like you are using ipv6 addresses... Anyway... check this line in your /etc/courier-imap/authdaemonrc file... authmodulelist="authcustom authcram authuserdb authldap authpam" That is the default setting... but it may not work for you... I would suggest tseting by authenticating to shadow... if you need instructions on how to set up this file further please let me know. -nick
courier-imap-1.5.1 has been added to portage. Added support for unicode searching, and proper listening to the ipv6 use variable. Let me know if this fixes your problem.
Can anyone verify that they have a working installation of courier-imap-1.5.1?
I've got a working install of courier-imap-1.5.1. Postfix is my mta too. I had problems with authdaemon refusing login too, but I changed authdaemonrc to 'authmodulelist="authpam"', and it works fine now. By the way, how would authmysql work, since I have a mysql db and would like to integrate it has much as possible
authmysql authenticates against a list of mail accounts stored in an external MySQL database. The /etc/courier-imap/authmysqlrc configuration file defines the particular details regarding the MySQL database and the schema of the mail account list table. cd /etc/courier-imap cp authmysqlrc.dist authmysqlrc nano authmysqlrc
