This is not a freebsd list, so you should say "freebsd ports". the term 
is used differently in other places. see
    http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/
for a completely different meaning (not even trying to see what it would 
mean outside of bsd world).

it says it all. authdaemon cannot connect to mysql as user 'root..'
1- make sure the (host, user, password) triple is correct,
2- make sure this triple is allowed to access the db (GRANT...)


you can check things manually

# mysql -h localhost.imsmailsrv.com -u root -p"xxxxx" dbname

<grin>
why that is called localhost.blahblah instead of just localhost is 
beyond my imagination...
</grin>
