John,

Thanks for your insight.

In an odd way.. it's a bit comforting to know I'm not the only one. What have you done for an IMAP solution in the meantime? It's pretty paramount I work something out soon.

Regards,

-Robert

I ran into the same problem what I used a php program to run the authinticate program. vadduaser. I bulk loaded 10.000 users into my database and after I did that my authintication was totally random. I was never able to figure out what caused the problem. and it was also driving me crazy. please let me know if you find the solution.

Sorry if this gets sent twice. The listserv hated my first one :)

Slackware 8.1 2.4.18-grsec-1.9.4 qmail+vpop+daemontools+fastfoward+courierimap

It appears I've got everything installed correctly. The qmail+vpop install has been working perfectly for months. I'm installing/installed courier to support imap for a webmail application.

Everything seems to work fine except for one thing. I'm randomly able to authenticate. I can't see a pattern and there is no out of the norm messages in syslog. One login courier authenticates X user fine. The next it might not.

I'm using vchkpasswd so my vpop plaintext passwords can be read by courier. (Trying to) The same password that works perfect everytime via pop/smtp is randomly accepted by courier.

Has anyone run into this problem before. Or can someone offer some insight on what I can do? This is driving me up the wall.

Things I've tried:

Edited authdaemonrc and removed authentication modules except authvhck (I think that's what it's called)

I've knocked the running daemons down to 1 as well.

Neither of these has had any affect.
