This says that it didn't see anne in the passwd-file.
/etc/imap.passwd anne:{plain}******:1000:1000::/home/anne
But it's correctly in here. I can't think of anything else than that it's reading wrong file somehow or that the imap.passwd file contains something else besides what you just pasted. Did you check with for example vi that there are no strange control characters at the beginning of the line?
I didn't find anything.
I've not gone away, but I've made a serious Oops with my OS. I'll be back when everything's up and running again.
