If I specify localhost as the host name for both imapd and sendmail sql plugin
authentication like this:
eg /etc/imapd.conf contains:
sasl_sql_hostnames:localhost:3306 << changing localhost to mail-host here
and /etc/sasl2/Sendmail.conf contains:
sql_hostnames:localhost:3306 << a
IIRC MySQL tries to use an UNIX socket instead of TCP for connecting to
the server when it sees the "localhost" string. If e.g. sendmail runs
chrooted, then it won't see the MySQL server's socket, therefore it
won't be able to connect.
