I try logging in to the POP3 service running courier authdaemon with 
a MYSQL backend, and a postfix relay, and this shows up in my mail.log.

The configuration file matches exactly the settings I have for MYSQL, 
and I can log into the server manually with no problem whatsoever.

##NAME: LOCATION:0
#
# The server name, userid, and password used to log in.

MYSQL_SERVER            127.0.0.1
MYSQL_USERNAME          mail_admin
MYSQL_PASSWORD          removed

##NAME: MYSQL_SOCKET:0
#
# MYSQL_SOCKET can be used with MySQL version 3.22 or later, it specifies the
# filesystem pipe used for the connection
#
# MYSQL_SOCKET          /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

##NAME: MYSQL_PORT:0
#
# MYSQL_PORT can be used with MySQL version 3.22 or later to specify a port to
# connect to.

MYSQL_PORT              0

##NAME: MYSQL_OPT:0
#
# Leave MYSQL_OPT as 0, unless you know what you're doing.

MYSQL_OPT               0

##NAME: MYSQL_DATABASE:0
#
# The name of the MySQL database we will open:

MYSQL_DATABASE          mail

##NAME: MYSQL_USER_TABLE:0
#
# The name of the table containing your user data.  See README.authmysqlrc
# for the required fields in this table.
MYSQL_USER_TABLE        users


The configuration file was snipped here to make things easier... all 
the important information for this particular problem's in here, I 
think. My my.cnf shows MYSQL listening on port 3306 to IP address 
127.0.0.1. Changing the MYSQL_PORT setting in the config file didn't 
fix the error, so I changed it back to 0. Netstat -a shows the following:
tcp        0      0 localhost:mysql         *:*                     LISTEN

Running authtest wasn't overly helpful, neither was tossing the error 
in the above snip from mail.log into search engines. I'm running 
Courier v0.47 on Ubuntu 6.06 if that's any help. I had a look at some 
of the pages on courier-mta.org already, though while they bring up 
that error message, everything they say to look for and double check 
is already the way it should be. Have I missed something overly 
obvious, perhaps?
