Hi, I'm trying to use dovecot as a proxy as described on http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy but without much success. The problem is that when I send a IMAP
login command dovecot is responding with "BYE Internal login
failure. Refer to server log for more information." Can anyone help
me shed light on this problem?Here's the log (Username, password and IPs have been anonymised): dovecot: Mar 27 13:07:11 Info: Dovecot v1.0.rc15 starting up dovecot: Mar 27 13:07:12 Info: auth(default): passwd-file /root/ dovecot-proxy-test.passwd: Read 1 users dovecot: Mar 27 13:07:29 Info: auth(default): client in: AUTH

user=, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.0.2, lip=192.168.0.1 I am on Cent OS 5 using dovecot version 1.0.rc15 from their
official yum repositories. If I connect my client directly to
192.168.0.3:143 using the same username and password everything
works correctly. Thanks in advance.
- Richard Try getting a newer version of dovecot from atrpms.net and see if it
works. Current is 1.0.13, at least a year newer then the release candidate
you are using.
That worked. Thank you.
