I have a strange error on some outlook clients connecting to my
courier-imap.

In the case where the password is not "remembered" by outlook, outlook
send to my imap server a CAPABILITY command whith the username but with
a blank password (just after a normal connexion with correct
username/password). This makes imap answer something at outlook which
retry this (stupid ?) thing once and then give up. For the user, outlook
ask three times for the password.

In the case where password is "remembered" by outlook, there is no such
problem and outlook send the CAPABILITY command with correct
username/password.

I've tried several versions of courier-imap (with or without authdaemon)
with the same error, this is courier-imap 1.6.2 compiled with these
options:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/courier-imap --without-authdaemon
--with-authpwd

Here are the log files:
