The authentication/authorization API changed between 2.2/2.4, if this module has not been updated to accommodate that, there is no way to fix this issue other than updating the module to work with the new API. Where does this module come from? The only thing I can find is: https://metacpan.org/pod/Authen::Simple which does not appear to include an IMAP component.

Thanks for the pointer… The last update for this module was in 2009; Apache 2.4 was released in 2012, so without even looking at the code I am fairly confident the module does not support it. The documentation comment "I've never tried this in mod_perl, so including the mod_perl example in the synopsis is pure hubris on my part" is also perhaps illuminating :). Hmm, actually, it looks like the module in need of update is Authen::Simple::Apache, not Authen::Simple::IMAP itself. That one was last released in April 2012, but does not appear to include Apache 2.4 support. You could try contacting the author of that module to ask if he would be willing to update it? Or if you are handy at coding, you could try to update it yourself, or contract somebody do it for you. There are a few other authentication modules out there with 2.4 support that could serve as examples, including https://metacpan.org/pod/Apache2::AuthCASpbh :).

If you read http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/upgrading.html it states a little bit further down related to the old "satisfy any" (which is what I want) 2.4 configuration: AuthType Basic AuthBasicProvider file AuthUserFile /example.com/conf/users.passwd AuthName secure # Implicitly Require valid-user Require ip 127.0.0.1 So it's implicit, which actaully I understand. As I said too, I have a login box (couple of email before yours) ... so it is actually loading everything as expected.
