[Dovecot] Connection dropped by imap server Query: CAPABILITY
Hi all, I have installed squirrelmail-1.4.4 and dovecot 0.9.11 on a debian sarge machine. The tls/ssl support is disabled from both squirrelmail and dovecot imap server. When i try to login i get the following error message:
ERROR: ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server. Query: CAPABILITY
If i give wrong password, it gives the message
Unknown user or password incorrect. which is fine.
The file /var/log/mail.err, is appended with the following message:
Jul 5 18:40:20 server dovecot: chdir(/home/username) failed with uid 1240: Permission denied Jul 5 18:40:20 server dovecot: child 20807 (imap) returned error 89
when i run the command: dovecot -c /etc/dovecot.conf it gives the following error:
Fatal: listen(143) failed: Address already in use
Later i enabled tls in squirrelmail and dovecot.conf. i got the following error:
Warning: fgets(): SSL: fatal protocol error in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/imap_general.php on line 88 ERROR: ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server. Query: CAPABILITY
Any suggestions? Thank you Srinivas

Well, this is your problem.. If your userdb returns UID 1240 for username, then /home/username must be owned by UID 1240 (and /home allow chdir there too).
