Hi everyone,
This is my second try with dovecot, and still no luck. What I want is twig to work with dovecot on the localhost address .
I need to authenticate through pam for real accounts and through pgsql for virtual ones.
I just cant autenticate: logs are : imap-:login: Authenticate PLAIN failed: Unsupported authentication mechanism or: Aborted login: method = PLAIN
Could someone please share a working config file that does what I want? I'm struggling for weeks now both on tyhe alpha5 and beta1 versions.
TIA
What do you get if you "telnet localhost 143" then type ". CAPABILITY" (then ". LOGOUT")? Does it include "AUTH=PLAIN"? What do you have for "mechanisms" and "disable_plaintext_auth"?
Best Wishes, Chris
