$HOME/Maildir exists so I guess that's one possibility out the window.  Any
thoughts on what it could be, or perhaps even further steps that I could
take to troubleshoot?  By the way, I'm launching courier-imap with a
daemontool run script.  I changed it slightly so that authdaemon would be
used as I think the script was written for an older version of courier-imap
- maybe that's part of my issue?

Very likely.

But I have no interest in debugging daemontools.

Courier-IMAP comes with its own installation script that installs everything that it needs. If you want to throw it away and replace-it with some homegrown code, that's fine but if it doesn't work you'll have to figure it out, since you are the only one who knows exactly what you did or didn't do.

That explain why you have no errors logged to syslog. imapd is probably failing, reporting an error to stderr, and terminating. Courier's startup script would've caught the error, and logged the error message to syslog.

So, you've thrown away all the startup and error-reporting infrastructure, and replaced it with some ancient code that has not been maintained this side of this millenium; which does not apparently log everything; something is broken, and you can't figure it out.
