Anders are you sure you have modified the correct authdaemonrc ?

I found out that I have a leftover /etc/courier/authdaemonrc the one
that needs modifying is :

/etc/courier/authlib/authdaemonrc

I have now removed authshadow from my system, and I will let you know if
it removes the error tomorrow.
