I am a new user to courier. I run sendmail/qpopper cureently and I am 
tierd of trying to get SPF working at the door so I am going to replace my 
entire mail system with Courier and all of it's components.

In just working through trial and error, I was happy to get SPF working. 
:)

Now, I also use PINE as my MUA and have always used MBOX format with POP3. 
I have read that using PINE to Courier's Maildir system works most 
seamlessly if I use IMAPD as the middle man. And I kind of like the idea 
of experimenting with IMAP anyway.  Now I am using Courier with MySQL 
support, and have my Courier passwd database. My passwords are plaintext.

I turned on the IMAPD daemon, and tried to have PINE login to it. and I am 
getting CRAM-MD5 failures.

I wanted to try debugging by using telnet to the imap2 port, using md5sum 
to make a hash of my plaintext password contained in my MySQL database.

telnet 10.0.0.20 imap2
Trying 10.0.0.20...
Connected to 10.0.0.20.
Escape character is '^]'.

And I get in my /var/log/authlog :

Dec 21 11:50:15 goonie authdaemond: pam_unix(imap:auth): authentication 
failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost=  user=grimm

Can anyone give me a nudge to some config examples of how-to's that would 
help me see what is going on and getting PINE reading my test mails?
