Dear List-
I don't know if the problem I'm having is with the uw-imap software, but posting 
here seemed a good place to start.

I have a mail server built on solaris 8 that I just upgraded/patched the code 
on.  The server has opensourse sendmail (8.12.10), uw-imap, a webmail 
application purchased from sendmail called sendmail mobile messaging server 
(running as a cgi on apache 1.3.26) and a sun crypto accelerator card.   The 
accelerator card uses sun's implementation of openssl 0.9.6j [engine] 10 Apr 
2003.  Sendmail and imap are both compiled against the sun crypto accelerator 
libraries.  Apache mod_ssl is supplied by sun.  The cert is self-signed.  When I 
compiled imap-2002e, both imap and pop work fine for normal mail client 
connections.  However, the webmail application fails to connect to the pop 
server with the incredibly vague error message:

An error was returned by the mail server:
Error connecting to pop server 
Please try again.

The webmail log file shows a logout (but no login).

In my maillog, all I get is this:

-------------------snip---------------------
Oct  2 18:15:14 becrux ipop3d[412]: [ID 806292 mail.debug] pop3 service init fro
m <ip number>
Oct  2 18:15:14 becrux ipop3d[412]: [ID 533678 mail.info] Logout user=??? host=b
ecrux.ligo.caltech.edu [<ip number>]
-------------------snip---------------------

This behavior was the same after compiling both imap-2002e and the development 
snap from 9/25 and stayed the same irrespective of whether the webmail 
application was using secure or insecure pop logins.  When I copy back my 
imapd/popd from my pre-existing build, everything works fine.  The original 
build was imap-2002, Release notes date 28 October 2002 (IMAP4rev1 2002.332). 
The customized parameters from my Makefile are below.  Aside from the addition 
of SSLKEYS, the makefiles for all versions are the same.

There is a new version of the webmail client out and it's possible that the 
problem might clear up once I update that.  Still, I was hoping that someone 
here might have an idea of what the problem might be.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts-

Lisa
