[Dovecot] openbsd + dovecot not downloading emails

Dear list members,

first my doveconf -n output:

# 2.0.17 (684381041dc4+): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: OpenBSD 5.1 i386 ffs mail_location = mbox:/var/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mbox_write_locks = fcntl mmap_disable = yes passdb { driver = bsdauth } ssl_cert =

when using evolution from a remote linux machine, and try to download/fetch the e-mails from my e-mail server, I get a pop-up window indicationg that is trying to do so (after I did sign-in with my user-id and password!). The problem is taht this process stays there forever and no messages get downloaded!

Thanks for your help

Tim
