    I spend two days trying to figure out why I was getting this crazy message on Debian Sarge 3.1 with courierpop3login:

    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: LOGIN: DEBUG: ip=[::ffff:XX.XXX.XX.140], command=CAPA
    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: LOGIN: DEBUG: ip=[::ffff:XX.XXX.XX.140], command=USER
    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: LOGIN: DEBUG: ip=[::ffff:XX.XXX.XX.140], command=PASS
    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: LOGIN: DEBUG: ip=[::ffff:XX.XXX.XX.140], username=web1_generic
    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: LOGIN: DEBUG: ip=[::ffff:XX.XXX.XX.140], password=something
    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: authdaemon: starting client module
    Sep 21 09:51:28 cobra courierpop3login: authdaemon: REJECT

    solution is realy simple:

    I changed the /etc/courier/authdaemonrc:

    FROM
    authmodulelist="authuserdb"

    TO
    authmodulelist="authuserdb authpam"

    This worked and I can check my mail through pop3, imap etc...

    Just in case anyone googles ;)

    Thank you. I'm reading the basics on Debian and I will install when I'm comfortable. I'll cut/paste this to notes just incase :cool:

    Just copied (not moved!) the thread to Tips/Tricks; I think it makes sense to have it also in that forum. :)
