just to add a little ive tried logging in through squirrelmail and it says : Unknown user or password incorrect. and the logs show: /var/log/mail.log Oct 30 22:29:17 webserver1 imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] Oct 30 22:29:17 webserver1 imapd: LOGIN FAILED, [email protected], ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] Oct 30 22:29:22 webserver1 imapd: LOGOUT, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], rcvd=67, sent=332 its like the database isnt configured right or something but ive looked at it serveral times and logged in manually with my username and password and it all works and looks good
i think i found the problem and its within how the passwords are encrypted i turned up the debugging level and got this Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 authdaemond: received auth request, service=pop3, authtype=login Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 authdaemond: authmysql: trying this module Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 authdaemond: SQL query: SELECT email, password, "", 5000, 5000, "/home/vmail", CONCAT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',-1),'/',SUBSTRING_$ Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 authdaemond: supplied password 'mypasshere' does not match encrypted password 'Go/8AmrizFkOM' Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 courierpop3login: LOGIN FAILED, [email protected], ip=[::ffff:192.168.1.200] Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 authdaemond: authmysql: REJECT - try next module Oct 30 23:30:00 webserver1 authdaemond: FAIL, all modules rejected Oct 30 23:30:05 webserver1 courierpop3login: Disconnected, ip=[::ffff:192.168.1.200]
solved my own problem ... when i used the encrypt function on the cli it must not work, when i use phpmyadmin it worked without a charm... i wont delete the thread just incase someone is having the same issue and it helps
Hello! I've also followed the tutorial with no problem. But after I was done I couldn't login with imap nor pop3. All I get with telnet is: Code: Trying <IP>... Connected to <HOST>. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Hello there. [email protected] pass test -ERR Temporary problem, please try again later Connection closed by foreign host. Checking my /etc/log/mail.log I get this: Code: May 19 22:50:20 b098 courierpop3login: Connection, ip=[::ffff:84.168.27.40] May 19 22:50:39 b098 authdaemond: authmysql: MYSQL_USERNAME not set in /etc/courier/authmysqlrc.

Does anyone has an idea? Best regards, Daniel
It's working now. I've done a few things one of them was restarting every service. I don't know, this could've be the solution.
