Hi,

  i donŽt know how to continue:

  I started mysqld --log ...
  Nothing happend in my Logfile, when I try to login.
  When I use phpMyAdmin I see everything I query.

  So I think the problem is somewhere between authdaemonrc und mysql.

Q: Why I can't login when using MySQL for authentication?
A: Here are some basic things to check. Note: I wrote this for MySQL but the 
general steps apply for nearly all backends. 


Make sure that authdaemond.mysql is running. Note: some Linux distributions do 
not include MySQL support by default. 
Set authmodulelist="authmysql" in authdaemonrc. 
You may have to set version="authdaemond.mysql" in authdaemonrc to force 
authdaemond.mysql to start. 
Verify that you have the username, password, etc. correct in authmysqlrc. 
Be sure that authdaemon and MySQL agree on how they are talking to each other, 
i.e. they are both using TCP/IP or unix sockets. Note: The Gentoo ebuilds for 
Courier and MySQL do not agree on the location of the unix socket. 
Are you using crypt() to encrypt passwords in the database. Note: MySQL's 
crypt() and system crypt() are not the same. MySQL uses encrypt() for system 
crypt(). You can also generate crypt()ed passwords from the command line like 
so: 
perl -le 'print crypt("password", "ab");'
"ab" is any two random characters. 
Set DEBUG_LOGIN=1 in imapd. You should then see some additional information in 
your mail log. You can set it to 2, that will show the failed password as well. 

If, after checking all of the above, it still doesn't work, turn on logging in 
MySQL and see if that gives you any clues.

  This seems to be correct .. so what could it be then?

  Hope you can help me.

Bye, Bastian
