Yes because I rebooted the machine. Normally, Courier should start because it's activated using rc-update but it simply doesn't. Perhaps I should mention that courier-authlib runs without problems. > >> A /etc/init.d/courier-imapd restart simply fails. >> > Fails how - what is in the system and mail logs ? www ~ # /etc/init.d/courier-imapd start * Starting courier-imapd ...

This is the cmdline which is run by the initscript. I added a "set -x" on top of /usr/lib/courier-imap/gentoo-imapd.rc trying to debug this script. That way I got this command. This is exactly why I'm so stuck about this. The initscript should run this line and apparently it does but the imapd doesn't start, at least when invoked by the initscript. In a regular shell I can run it without problems as I stated above. Christian
