courier-imap
OK, I have read through the forums and I still can't figure this out.
I have installed courier-imap. It seems to be that it does not recognize my passwords. I am using shaodw passwords. I cant figure out how to login with this. Can someone please tell me how to get courier-imap to work? |
Can you post your courier config files:
imapd authdemonrc Also take a look at your maillog and /var/log/messages and see if there are any entries relating to your issue in there. |
ok imapd config:

It isn't that the password is failing it is that you haven't set up the directories for storing your mail.
If you are using "~/.maildir" make sure it exists and that the permissions are correct. |
ok i set my MAILDIR=.maildir to
MAILDIR=/var/spool/mail Now all it says is "connecting". Its been saying that for about 30mins now. Any idea? Thanks |
You will need to give it a location relative to your home dir - ie the location that your mta delivers mail to.
