Hi,

I configured dovecot IMAP for MySQL authentification.

--- start dovecot.conf --- auth_userdb = mysql /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf auth_passdb = mysql /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf --- end dovecot.conf ---

--- start dovecot-mysql.conf --- db_host = localhost db_port = 3306 db_unix_socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock db = users db_user = users db_passwd = xxx db_client_flags = 0

password_query = SELECT password FROM users WHERE userid = '%n' AND active = 'Y'

user_query = SELECT home, uid, gid FROM users WHERE userid = '%u' --- end dovecot-mysql.conf --

/var/log/mail.log looks fine:

--- start mail.log --- Aug 29 14:40:43 vs6020 dovecot: Dovecot starting up Aug 29 14:40:44 vs6020 dovecot-auth: MySQL: connected to localhost --- end mail.log ---

But if i try to log in authentification failed. I added the user test to the database and set the user test in my mail client(evolution)

I dont know what it could be.. because connecting to mysql worked fine...

best regards,
