I changed maildir by Maildir.
I ran Mark Delany's checkpassword test. I did:
printf "myaccount \0mypassword\0Y123456\0" | /bin/checkpassword id 3<&0
and the test wass succesfull.
However when I intent to see my e-mail from any Windows station with
Outlook Express, I get the following message: ŽERR authorization failedŽ.
