I'm affraid that's my only idea - I had the same issue, and it was due to
DNS not working with IPv6 due to my nameserver config... Maybe you can fix
the nameserver that way  - I don't think nslookup is an IPv6 tool? So it
would use v4 - which obviously works - all I can say is I had the exact same
symptoms first time I set up, so I think your options are recompile, or try
to determine IF DNS is working under IP6 for you.

Subject: RE: [courier-users] DNS lookup failed?


Any other possible issues? We are using the following RPM's:

courier-mysql-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-maildrop-wrapper-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-smtpauth-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-webmail-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-maildrop-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-pop3d-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-imapd-0.40.0-2.7.3
courier-mlm-0.40.0-2.7.3

We are using software that installed these particular RPM's. We have heard
of nobody else having problems so I wonder if it's not something else? I am
not against a recompile, but I'd like to see if there are other options.

Any ideas?
