Thanks Juri, you gave me renewed hope, and Adam gave me the means to ensure
I was looking at an authentication problem.  The long and short of it is I
must have been tired and missed something on previous attempts.  I changed
the authmodulelist to authpam as you suggested, and as I had done in the
past, telnet'd to port 143 and successfully logged in.  Then I started up
Outlook Express and successfully logged in.  I don't know what I did
differently.  The only thing I can think of is that I previously didn't have
INBOX specified in my root folder path in Outlook in combination with the
authpam.

Oh well.  On to the next problem. Thanks all.

Greg

Should be: authmodulelist="authpam" if you want to use PAM (works here
;)

Looks good, but make sure it has the right permissions and ownership:

[root@muli root]# ls -l /etc/pam.d/imap
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          474 Feb 14 13:04 /etc/pam.d/imap

Cheers,
Juri
