just to recap the issue was about squirrelmail giving a wrong message : "connection dropped by imap server" instead of "invalid user or password"
as advised i connected using command line on both my old and new servers, and have posted the details including the output of dovevcot -n.
Is this the OLD or CURRENT server and what about the other one?
- command prompt login. i put wrong password
telnet x.x.x.x 143
- OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE START TLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN AUTH=DIGEST-MD5 AUTH=CRAM-MD5] ready.
1 login acc@mydomain.com wrongpass
1 NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed.
at this point: Does Dovecot drop the telnet session or is it still open?
- DOVECOT LOG output
