I need some help, please ;)
Whenever I've seen this, it's been a problem with the authentication daemon talking to the database (in your case, MySQL.) Turn up the debugging options in the authentication daemon config file, restart the daemon, and use the "authtest" program to check before you try and login to Courier IMAP.
That will log any MySQL-related errors.
For more details on how to do this: http://www.courier-mta.org/authlib/README.authdebug.html
Feb 15 18:02:30 odin imapd: Connection, ip=[127.0.0.1] Feb 15 18:02:30 odin authdaemond: received auth request, service=imap, authtype=login Feb 15 18:02:30 odin authdaemond: authmysql: trying this module Feb 15 18:02:30 odin authdaemond: authmysql: TEMPFAIL - no more modules will be tried
It looks like some debugging has been turned on. However,
1. you also need to be running with a fairly recent version of courier-authlib
2. you need to have the authmysql module installed and working in the first place
To check (2), after you have turned on debug logging, stop and restart authdaemond, then look in the debug logs before you send any queries.
If you see something like
Oct 17 11:25:37 commodore authdaemond: Installing libauthmysql Oct 17 11:25:37 commodore authdaemond: libauthmysql.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I stopped and started the deamon, and here is the result:
Feb 18 13:46:21 odin authdaemond: stopping authdaemond children Feb 18 13:46:30 odin authdaemond: modules="authmysql", daemons=5 Feb 18 13:46:30 odin authdaemond: Installing libauthmysql Feb 18 13:46:30 odin authdaemond: Installation complete: authmysql
then either libauthmysql.so is not loaded, or the libraries it depends on are not in the run-time linker path.
Post the whole debug log from restarting authdaemond, and the whole debug log from when a request comes in.

Even with maildrop installed i get an error, no longer the I/O error but, /var/log/maillog
