The problem is with dovecot. (port 110 is the IMAP port, isn't it? I
can't telnet to it.)
camille log # emerge -pv dovecot
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] net-mail/dovecot-1.1.1-r1 USE="doc ipv6 kerberos ldap
mysql pam ssl -debug -managesieve -mbox -pop3d -postgres -sieve -sqlite3
-suid -vpopmail" 2,221 kB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 2,221 kB
Here's my dovecot.conf:
camille log # cat /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf | sed /#/d
protocols = imap imaps
disable_plaintext_auth = no
ssl_disable = yes
mail_location = maildir:~/.maildir
protocol imap {
}
protocol pop3 {
}
protocol lda {
postmaster_address = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
}
auth default {
mechanisms = plain
passdb pam {
args = "*"
}
userdb passwd {
}
user = root
}
dict {
}
plugin {
}
