3. While trying to investigate whats really going on, I went back and looked at the strace file you posted. Contrary to what was posted before, it seems that checkvpw did succeed for process 11013. The thing I find strange is that checkvpw was called three times as indicated by processes 10976, 10999, 11013. The 11013 process actually calls /var/qmail/bin/bincauthwrap which calls (process 11014) which calls /var/qmail/bin/bincimapd (later in 11014). bincimapd does not seem to do much (a buch of memory allocations) before exiting. So, now I am really confused!-)

Henry:-)

It's called 3 times because I tried logging in with three variations of the virtual user id. The first 2 times checkvpw failed and the 3rd time bincimapd exited 111. This is consistent, the domain-user and domain:user forms fail in checkvpw, the [EMAIL PROTECTED] form exits bincimapd 111. This is from my original post:


Here's me trying to login to imap using 3 different ways to specify a
virtual user name, they all fail:
