Hi fellas,
I upgraded from 7.5.2 to 7.5.4 a little while ago and webmail (Horde) just stopped working. I get a "Login Failed" message for every account, old and new, although POP works fine. My clients don't use it so I didn't care too much. However, today I got a request for it so I had to work on it.
Searching the forums, I found a lot of solutions but none worked for me. I set up Squirrelmail and configured it to talk to the Courier-IMAP server but it was still the same. Then after looking at the source code of those products, I figured that it must be an IMAP problem. Checking the /etc/courier-imap/imapd file I found the two very important lines commented out by the upgrade package that I applied:
AUTHMODULES="authpsa"
MAILPASSWD="/var/qmail/users/poppasswd"
Why that stupid package did that I don't know... but I uncommented them and imap and webmail (horde and squirrelmail - which rely on imap) now work for me. Hope if you're pulling your hair out and searching for a solution, you'll find this post and it'll help you somehow.
Cheers,
Linh
