You should have a line have there:
authmodulelist="authmysql"
and everywhere else:
authmodulelist="authdaemon"
"/usr/lib/courier/etc/authmysqlrc.dist" to
"/usr/lib/courier/etc/authmysqlrc" and changed the settings to
MYSQL_SERVER localhost
MYSQL_USERNAME admin
MYSQL_USERNAME admin
You dont need this twice, but should do no harm :)

You set both uid and gid to 1 (which is 'daemon' on BSD), and left
HOME and MAIL empty with only 1000 bytes quota. Dont know if this
is the only problem, but it will never work in the real world.
Finally I restarted the authmysql daemon
/usr/lib/courier/libexec/authlib/authdaemond.mysql stop
/usr/lib/courier/libexec/authlib/authdaemond.mysql start
Then, I use Outlook Express to connect to it and it says "Login failed"
Try `authtest christopher password` (in src/authlib) but first
fix up your HOME and make shure the ./Maildir is owned by the
selected UID.
Anybody has a clue? By the way, where is the default log file for auth?
There should something like this in your mysql-log:
Connect admin@localhost on
SELECT id, crypt, plain, uid, gid, home, maildir, "", name FROM ...
