Already did, here's the output:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# authtest kevin@<domain name filtered> <password filtered>Authentication succeeded.

Now, look at the ownership and the permissions of this directory, and the Maildir subdirectory.
Also look at this directory's parent directory's permissions, and it's parent directory, all the way back to /.
This is a simple file/directory permissioning issue.

I then setup the authentication system to use MySQL, and setup a virtual domain with the maildirs living in /home/mail/[domain.com]/ [username] I created a courier user (503) and a courier group (503), chowned the entire /home/mail structure to courier:courier. I also configured the record in the passwd table for uid=503 and gid=503.

You paraphrased how you think you've set up your mysql-based authentication, but you did not post your actual authentication data. There's a likely disconnect between what you think has happened, and what actually happened.Use the authtest utility in the courier-authlib package to verify that your authentication configuration is set up properly.---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---Take Surveys.
