This is the key. The "size read failed" error mean saslauthd segfaulted. I had that problem too. For me, the problem was Kerberos-related. There are two possible cause that I know of : the keytab must be for service host or imap (I use host) ie host/[EMAIL PROTECTED], and the server name in your keytab must be the fully qualified hostname of your machine ie the output of "hostname -f". At least, that is what I can remember on the top of my head. The first thing is to make saslauthd work. As somebody else pointed, testsaslauthd may be of help there. -- Etienne Goyer Linux Québec Technologies Inc. http://www.LinuxQuebec.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
