I am evaluating bincimap to start running our mail servers locally.

I installed it from source, as I didn't find a RedHat 8 binary RPM and
it went fine.

I can telnet to the server, but when I try to login (using: 1 login
username password) I always get "BYE The server dies unexpectedly..."
I checked the /etc/xinetd.d/imap file and it was pointing to
/bin/checkpassword which I don't have on my system. So I changed the
line to /etc/opt/bincimap/scripts/checkpassword.pl
I get the same error when trying to login so I checked the
checkpassword.pl file.

The first sub (sub authenticated) says "# This is the only function you need to change"
However, it does not say what I should change it to. (if it
knew that it would have changed it for me, I suppose)
Is there anyone who has information about this or knows where I can
look for more information? It looks like the function is built to
always fail with error 111.

Thank You
