This is an authentication problem. Follow http://www.courier-mta.org/authlib/README.authdebug.html to pinpoint it. At this stage, the only config file of interest to you is "authdaemonrc", plus any subsidiary ones like authmysqlrc you are using. You can use "authtest <username> <password>" to test authentication, without involving imap at all. If sarahf is a system user and you are using authpam, check your pam config.
