Is this correct or do i need the dashes after  like this
--conf=/usr/local/etc/bincimap/bincimap.conf --

Anyways i used the file above and still get an error in my browser like this
*ERROR:*
*ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server.*

This in my binc logs

Looks like a problem with checkpassword.

What does the following produce:
echo "<user>\0<pass>\0" | /usr/local/bin/checkpassword 3<&0 echo; echo $?

Henry :-)

v22.computerking.ca > /usr/local/etc/bincimap/imap #echo
"<user>\0<pass>\0" | /usr/local/bin/checkpassword 3<&0 echo; echo  $?
2
so the output is 2 i think

Authentication {
    allow plain auth in non ssl = "yes",            /* allow login or
                                                      authenticate
                                                      when not in
                                                      SSL/TLS mode */

  this is mistake #1, as you also noticed. There should be a space
  after the -- argument, or else bincimap-up with interpret the
  checkpassword path as an actual command line option just like
  --help.

/usr/local/bin/recordio

                        ^
                         this is mistake #2, there should be a trailing
                         backslash to denote a line continuation, just
                         like the preceding lines.

/usr/local/bin/bincimapd

*****You know what is funny on my other server across town everything
works fine this is the run file from that server and I get this in the logs
#!/bin/sh

--conf=/usr/local/etc/bincimap/bincimap.conf -- \
/usr/local/bin/checkpassword \

Yes, because here you will notice that you both have the -- argument
right, and the trailing backslash.

***** Grasping at straws here
(...)
--/usr/local/bin/checkpassword \

  ^
   again, after -- there must be at least one space. The -- argument
   is similar to that of 'rm', it marks the end of the command line
   arguments and the start of the "unqualified arguments".

This last time, you seem to have got it right. But could you please try to
do the test with a correct run file (with the -- and backslashes at the
right place).

I am lost please help

It'll work. :-) I know it does.
