I'd suspect it's either logging to /var/log/mail* or /var/log/messages
Have you checked both?

I forgot:

camille log # netstat -ptln
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:143             0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 4311/dovecot
And are you connecting via IMAP in your clients, the server addresses
are correct, you can telnet to your mail server on port 143, etc?

I checked both /var/log/mail.log and /var/log/messages, yes

And I am connecting via IMAP.
My public IP address is 70.234.122.254

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ telnet 127.0.0.1 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK Dovecot ready.
^]

telnet> quit
Connection closed.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ telnet 70.254.122.254 143
Trying 70.254.122.254...
telnet: connect to address 70.254.122.254: Connection refused




This may be a typo but you posted your public IP address is 70.234.122.254 then tried to connect to 70.254.122.254. One is 234 and the other is 254.

If not a typo, I thought only I could do something like that. LOL Carry on.

You were right, when I try the correct IP address, it tries and tries
and tries...:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ telnet 70.234.122.254 143
Trying 70.234.122.254...



Well, I was hoping that using the correct address would get a woooo hooooo but I guess not. Would be nice if it was that simple tho.
