It must have been late when I wrote that one! If you use imtest -u test -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] -m plain -t '' localhost I bet it will let you select your inbox. Is your machine's name post.mydomain.com? Did you create the test user like this?: saslpasswd2 -c -u mydomain.com test If so, create the user without using the "-u" option, or create it with "-u post.mydomain.com". This should let you put a username of "test" in Outlook Depress (or whatever MUA you are using), as well as using "test" for both the "-u" and "-a" arguments for imtest.
