For some time now I have been trying to get IMAP resources working on KMail.
I have followed the docs from kde, but they tell how to configure cyrus IMAP,
so I've had to learn as I went along.
After a lot of help from the postfix list I now have a working sasl. The ability of the user 'groupware' to log in with PLAIN has been checked in a telnet session. Everything in KMail has been set up as in the documentation, but it doesn't work. Now I'm wondering if anything in my dovecot configuration needs changing.
dovecot -n
# /etc/dovecot.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/mail/mail info_log_path: /var/log/mail/mail.info protocols: imap listen: *:143 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_extra_groups: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir/ maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes auth default: mechanisms: plain login debug: yes debug_passwords: yes passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix master:
I'd be thankful for any help. Thanks
