I have a mail server running a local domain, but is ready to add virtual domains. postfix + courier imap + cyrus sasl + mysql, etc... following the gentoo "virtual mailhosting system with postfix guide" Everything seems to be working fine. I can send email to users@mydomain.com... the system recognizes the local domain and delivers the appropriate emails to /home/user/.maildir/new just like it's suppose to. On the actual server I can go into the .maildir and view the emails. When trying to connect remotely with an email client (thunderbird) I can't seem to authenticate... and it's driving me crazy. Could someone please point me in the right direction? #tail -f /var/log/messages Feb 9 15:43:52 myhost imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:216.xxx.xxx.xx] Feb 9 15:43:55 myhost imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=myuser@mydomain.com, ip=[::ffff:216.xxx.xxx.xx] Feb 9 15:43:55 myhost imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Where is my configuration problem most likely? In my /etc/postfix/main.cf file? or in my courier configs? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Darren -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
