[Dovecot] Trouble with basic Dovecot setup

Hi,

I have compiled dovecot-1.0_stable.
(http://dovecot.org/nightly/stable/dovecot-stable-20050328.tar.gz)

I have it set to "userdb = passwd" & "passdb = passwd"

I have a user "wise" with an maildir type mailbox at ~/Mail
The actual maildirs are all subfolders with the INBOX "inbox"
being one of them.

I also have setup the ssl certificates with the script from
the source doc directory.

I start dovecot, and try to login from a seperate machine running
thunderbird.  I tell it to use ssl ( 993 ).


(I specified both dovecot logs in the config file.)
This is what I get from the dovecot logs:
 
"info_log_path = /etc/dovecot/info.log":
dovecot: Mar 29 08:30:15 Info: Dovecot v1.0-stable starting up
dovecot: Mar 29 08:37:44 Info: Dovecot v1.0-stable starting up
dovecot: Mar 29 08:39:04 Info: imap-login: Aborted login [###.###.###.###]


I get that last line every time I try to connect from thunderbird.

Any ideas?

I can give more detailed info as well.

thanks!
