Hello,
I have a Debian machine that is virtual-hosting 6 domains with exim4. I
finally got exim4 working well enough where I can send and receive mail using
the mail command on my machine. I would eventually like to have SquirrelMail
(which requires IMAP) working on my website. For whatever reason, exim4
doesn't seem to support IMAP. I found out that Dovecot is a prominent IMAP
server.
So I installed the most current Dovecot package (1.0.rc15) in Debian.
Something is broken though...
As I log into SquirrelMail, I get an error message "Error connecting to IMAP
server: localhost. 111 : Connection refused". To investigate, I decided to
telnet localhost on port 143 and found out that yes, the connection is in fact
refused.
So what do I need to do in order to have dovecot listen on port 143?
Also, I noticed when I restart dovecot...
debian:/etc/dovecot# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart
Restarting mail server: dovecotError: Can't use mail executable
/usr/lib/dovecot/imap: No such file or directory
I hope this isn't a serious problem.
Thanks
Tim Legg
