Thanks, Sam.

There are no instructions in the INSTALL file I have (0.37.2 complete). The
only install docs I have are the text file in the root dir and the html
version in the doc dir (this is v. 0.37.2). In any case, I did find the rc
script, but issuing it the start command still produced no responses to
subsequent IMAP connection attempts on port 143. I tried this by starting
authdaemond.plain, then issuing courier start, then imapd.rc start, then
telnetting to port 143 from the host itself. I do get a momentary connect, but
then the connection is immediately closed. The imapd man page didn't mention
the rc script either.

0). Is there another INSTALL file in another distribution? (perhaps the
stand-alone source for imapd?)

1). I don't have an AUTHSERVICE set in the /etc/imapd file, and
IMAPDSTART=yes. I checked the other settings for basic sanity and they looked
okay.

Thanks for you help.
