>A (very) cursory glance suggests that you are trying to create
something in tmp, but cannot. You cannot create stuff in a directory
unless you can search it ('else how would you know if a file already
existed? And if you didn't know, that would let you discover if a file
existed).
drwxrwxrwx 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Sep 24 11:26 tmp
No change. Still doesn't work.

It most certainly _should_ be. I've set that in
/usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/imapd thus:
TCPDOPTS="-nodnslookup -noidentlookup -user=vpopmail
-group=vchkpw"
And "ps auxw" after telneting in produces:
vpopmail 13487 0.0 0.3 1264 604 ? S 19:35 0:00
/usr/.../couriertcpd...
