Package: bincimap
Version: 1.2.12final-1
Severity: normal
In my /etc/bincimap/bincimap.conf, I've set path = ".emailstore" so that emails
get stored in ~/.emailstore.
Bincimap stores all the emails there and reads them from the, but the .password
file has to be in '~/Maildir'. If the password file isn't there, authentication
fails. It doesn't read the password from ~/.emailstore/.password but only from
~/Maildir/.password even though ~/.emailstore is the path to the emails.

it's not bincimap checking the password, it's the checkpassword
implementation, normally checkpw. You can tell the checkpw program to
look into another directory, please see the checkpw(8) man page.
