Pop3 works imap doesn't.. Nothing special nothing whacky. I feel like I'm chasing a ghost. Where should I begin debugging?

thanks

You're really going to have to give us more

is it running? can you connect? do you get any errors?

anything in the /var/log/messages, /var/log/maillog, other logs in /var/log/mail ?

what versions of the toaster, courier?
(pkg_info |grep -i courier), etc.

I just stumbled onto this problem last night. Meander on over to /usr/local/etc/courier-imap and edit the file imap. Read the file. The solution will be obvious.

No, it's not Mail::Toaster's fault, either something in the port or (more likely) in the sources changed.

nothing but auth failures.

courier-authlib-0.55_1 Authentication library used by courier ports
courier-imap-4.0.2,1 IMAP (and POP3) server that provides access to Maildir mail

Matt, I saw the imapd=no option is that what you were referring to?  
I changed it to yes restarted still no go. I skimmed over it I'll read the whole conf in a bit.

I don't know why, but courier authlib will always try to authenticate users using authmysql module. It seems quite reasonable, but does not work. After a lot of suffering and pain, I've discovered where to change this setting.

Edit the /usr/local/etc/authlib/authdaemonrc file and change the line

authmodulelist="authuserdb authldap authmysql authvchkpw"

to

authmodulelist="authvchkpw".

This change will have effect after a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/courier-authdaemond.sh restart.
