Hello,

I hope someone can help me with this one, I'm trying to get the thing working for a couple weeks now but can't find a solution:

As there's not really a manual of how to implement vpopmail/courierimap together, I tried two possiblities which you can find below, I hope you can give some tips how to solve the problem. I'm using vpopmail 5.3.9-devel and courier-imap-1.61. The server is a new server without any previous (older) software ever installed.

vpopmail is compiled with following options and is authenticating without any problem:

./configure --enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-learn-passwords=y --enable-mysql=y --enable-defaultquota=20000000S

I also added inc_deps and lib_deps as they didn't exist after vpopmail install.

echo "-I/home/vpopmail/include” > ~vpopmail/etc/inc_deps echo "-L/home/vpopmail/lib -L/home/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz" > ~vpopmail/etc/lib_deps chown vpopmail.vchkpw ~vpopmail/etc/*

As I try to get courierimap compiled with following options I get following error:

./configure --without-ipv6 --without-authdaemon --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs --without-authcustom --without-authcram --without-authuserdb --without-authpam --without-authshadow --without-authpwd --without-authldap --without-authmysql

I also tried to compile courier-imap another way which you can find here below:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

./configure --without-ipv6 --without-authdaemon --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs --without-authcustom --without-authcram --without-authuserdb --without-authpam --without-authshadow --without-authpwd --without-authldap --with-authmysql --without-authvchkpw

When I compile courier-imap this way everything compiles fine, but when I start courier-imap it doesn't authenticate. Does courier-imap need to authenticate via vchkpw (/home/vpopmail/bin) or via the created authmysql module, like the way I compiled courier-imap this way?

Also what, minimum, should be changed in authmysqlrc ?

I hope you can give me some answers.

Thank you very much.
