We currently had dovecote 99 running and ran into some issues with it, mainly our pop3 sessions timeout and were slow.
I upgraded to the latest version and im serving imap with pop3 using pam.
Heres my pam file:
[root@pop etc]# cat /etc/pam.d/dovecot #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_unix.so nullok account required pam_unix.so
The problem I'm having is I can authenticate to imap, but it's very slow, however pop3 doesn't work at all. I have auth debug set and I can see the imap authentication but not pop3.
Here is my config file.
ssl_disable: yes login_dir: /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: maildir:/home/%1u/%u/Maildir mail_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/pop3 auth default: debug: yes debug_passwords: yes passdb: driver: pam args: dovecot passdb: driver: passwd userdb: driver: passwd

Using maildir's with pam authentication, I really would appreciate any help.
