This sounds like it might be a Courrier authentication problem. IMAP is responsible for the authentication. The authdaemon included with Courrier has several authentication options that are staggered. (If the first authentication type fails then then next will be tried.) If all of your email users are autheticated against one thing (just the passwd file, or just /etc/userdb, or just LDAP) then you might seriously consider removing all authentication types except the one you're using. In other words, edit them out of the authdaemonrc file. For example, to prevent my machine from tying to authenticate my users against PAM or LDAP I trim down this line: authmodulelist="authcustom authcram authuserdb authpam authldap" To simply contain the one authentication method I accept. authmodulelist="authuserdb" This can help prevent ambiguity against where users are authenticated. Let me know if this helps.

I am having some weird problems when using squirrelmail. I do not seem to be able to login in squirrelmail decently with my account. Someone else has no problems logging in. When I finally successfully log in using my account, it takes a couple of clicks on some links (inbox, trash) before I get an error stating that I'm not logged in correctly. Entering email and pass will give username/password error. Trying half a million times won't do anything. After a while, suddenly, once again I can login successfully, however after a short wile I get the same error as above. I have checked some accounts. Some accounts never have problems, some accounts suddenly became inaccessible via webmail (user/password error) etc etc. I have no idea where to begin to find the problem, any ideas? Someone with similar experiences? Thanks Kind greets Bart An eye for an eye... And soon the whole world would be blind ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
