Hi! I've been searching everywhere for Imap help on FreeBSD and apparently this list is my last hope. I've always used Imap in the past but I cant seem to get the new version of FreeBSD and Imap to work properly.
What I want: All I want is STANDARD IMAP. I want to be able to login directly using Port 143 or one of my Webmail clients (which no longer work with the newer version of imap-uw. Everytime I try to login with this new version using the standard port 143 on outlook or webmail I get "Login rejected" and bad password errors. I have read the docs thoroughly, searched all over the net and various bulletin boards and am getting no help anywhere. I've reinstalled imap-uw over 50 times now using everything from the standard "make install" to the "make -DWITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT=yes install", make SSLTYPE=unix install, "make WITHOUT_SSL=yes install" and None of it seems to work for port 143???? Port 993 works fine but I need the standard port 143 to work Each time I remake and install, I make sure the following line is in my inetd.conf file: imap4 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/imapd imapd and per the install notes, though this part was new to me, I added the following sections to my /etc/pam.conf file imap auth required pam_unix.so imap account required pam_unix.so try_first_pass imap session required pam_deny.so Can someone out there please tell me, or point me to a straightforward explanation of how I can get imap to work Normal on port 143 or what I'm messing up on? I would really appreciate the help as after 3 weeks I am literally pulling my hair out over what Used to be a VERY simple installation procedure! Thank you very much!
