You have a serious misconfiguration there:
23981 read(3, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]\nUID=100"..., 8191) = 119
...
23981 chdir("/mail/karmak.org/test") = 0
That's a succesfull authentication followed by opening /mail/karmak.org/test
as the account's home directory. However, the next call is:
execve("/pkg/courier/0.36.1/.i686-pc-linux-gnu/.karmak-standard.1/bin/imapd"
, ...
Based on the subsequent trace, this file appears not to be the imapd server
binary, but the system startup imapd script. So, something is seriously
screwed up here. Unfortunately, it is not possible to determine what that
"something" is. That's because this pathname suggests that you did not
compile and install Courier yourself, but used a prepackaged version. You
should contact the package's maintainer for additional assistance. I have
no idea how your package was built, or what custom configuration this
package uses. Unless you want to tell us that you ran the configure script
yourself (followed by make install), nobody will have any idea what your
environment is.
