IMAP Not Working POP3 Is Fine

[MattR@]

Hi all,
Our IMAP doesn't seem to be working on a default install on FreeBSD 5.3R, In the logs, all I'm seeing is a connection and a login failed message. Webmail is the same. Users are however able to login via POP3 without any problem. Has anyone run into this?

Thanks,
Matt

I have the exact same problem with the exact same version of FreeBSD...

Anybody know how to fix this problem?

Check the /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/imapd file. There must be the following records at the bottom of the file:

# tail /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/imapd

#
# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory.
#
#
# DEFAULT SETTING from /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/imapd.dist:
#MAILDIRPATH=Maildir
MAILDIRPATH=Maildir

AUTHMODULES="authpsa"
MAILPASSWD="/var/qmail/users/poppasswd"

PS. On a freebsd this file may be located somewhere in /usr/local/psa/courier-imap/etc/imapd

Yes, I have those records in /usr/local/psa/courier-imap/etc/imapd:

##NAME: MAILDIRPATH:0
#
# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory.
#
MAILDIRPATH=Maildir
AUTHMODULES="authpsa"
MAILPASSWD="/usr/local/psa/qmail/users/poppasswd"
