| Code: | * OK Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2002 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for distribution information.
LOGIN root passwd
LOGIN NO Error in IMAP command received by server. |
also tried it with a non-priv account and got the same thing. i edited the /etc/courier-imap/authdaemonrc to what the desktop config guide said.
anyone know what's wrong? do i need to setup a username and pw separetely from the accounts already on the machine?
thanks,
ryan

figured out that i wasnt typing exactly what was in the docs:
| Code: | | 1 LOGIN root passwd |
i was omitting the "1". however, logins still fail. this time though, it actually says login failed.
how do i add an account?

Hi, well... just if you didn't find out....
You should also add "pam" to the USE variable before emerging courier(-imap). you may also use some others (i.e. ldap, berkdb...).
If you've done so you should also tell the servers to use these authentification method by editing your /etc/courier[-imap]/authdaemondrc and set the "authdaemonlist" and "version" variable.
That's what I did, and it works:
USE="pam" # in /etc/make.conf
authdaemonrc="authpam"
version="authdaemond.plain" # well, here I'm not sure, but it works

pam was already specified in my USE variable in make.conf

Hi
you must have a .maildir before typing this. use mutt with the user you want and after mutt creates a maildir it works for me
hope this helps
