[Dovecot] Authentication Failure

I installed Dovecot on our FC3 sendmail server and get this from our Dallas office ( out of state to me ).

dovecot(pam_unix)[13823]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost

Only one Dallas user can get mail (pop3 or imap). All local users work fine. I ended upgoing back to UW and all works fine. What should I look for?

Thanks
