hi, i have followed th tutorial "http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-squirrelmail-ubuntu8.10" till the end (a great tutorial by the way), i could access squirrelmail login page, but when i enter the mail address/pwd of a database user, i have an error that IMAP connection was dropped, did anyone had this error ? Thanks
On the mail.log, i found that when i try to telnet the server via POP or IMAP i have: Feb 15 16:49:32 server1 imapd: chdir test.loc/la/: No such file or directory Feb 15 16:49:48 server1 pop3d: Connection, ip=[::ffff:192.168.0.100] Feb 15 16:50:03 server1 pop3d: chdir test.loc/la/: No such file or directory 'test.loc' is the domain name, and 'la' is a user that i try to setup mail for : ''[email protected]" thanks for your help.
I have the same problem. I configured Squirrelmail with courier. I will insert my log files.

Did you create the [email protected] account in your database? Is example.com in the domains table? You might have to create an A record for mail.example.com.
