hi, about a year ago robert mayer sent a mail describing a problem causing a random authentication failure in courier-imap. i still facing the same problem. has anybody found a solution?
i'm using courier-imap/vpopmail/qmail on Debian linux. Thank you. --- John, Thanks for your insight. In an odd way.. it's a bit comforting to know I'm not the only one. What have you done for an IMAP solution in the meantime? It's pretty paramount I work something out soon.

Random authentication! I ran into the same problem what I used a php program to run the authinticate program. vadduaser. I bulk loaded 10.000 users into my database and after I did that my authintication was totally random. I was never able to figure out what caused the problem. and it was also driving me crazy. please let me know if you find the solution.
