hi all ... first time poster here many thanks for the mail list
I've just installed exim 4.22 from source (works nicely) delivering to ~/Maildir for each user
ive setup virutual_aliases in exim for 5 domains
jzaw has a unique user that mail @domain1 @domain2 @domain3 etc gets delivered
ie users are jzaw1 jzaw2 jzaw3 etc ... this keeps the mail separate for jzaw at each of those domains
(usernames changed to protect the innocent)
the mail is being delivered with no problems
however
when trying to read my mail with an imap client (OS X mail.app) note all imap login attempts come from the same client and same ip
I'm ok if I enable the first account , then the second but by the time I try to enable the 3rd and fourth account I get errors telling me there might be wrong with the mail server or with the network and I get very fast cyclic login logout + the stated error message poppup
im completely bald now cos ive pulled out every strand of hair!
google is no longer of help cos my queries remain too vague ... ive no idea what string i might start a search on (4 days of googling brings me no closer to finding a fix)
any insight is very much appreciated
many thanks in advance
Zaw
