I got the same error when adding "-u cyrus -auth
login"...
BTW, "imtest" authenticates without problems:
su-2.05$ imtest -u cyrus -m login localhost
C: C01 CAPABILITY
S: * OK smith Cyrus IMAP4 v2.0.16 server ready
S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+
NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT
MULTIAPPEND SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT
THREAD=REFERENCES IDLE
S: C01 OK Completed
Password:
C: L01 LOGIN cyrus {8}
+ go ahead
C: <omitted>
L01 OK User logged in
Authenticated.
Security strength factor: 0
I'm using sasldb for authentication.
Any ideas ?
