Since you say that you are using SSLTYPE=none, we know that this is not the "no plaintext passwords on non-SSL/TLS sessions" issue.

You said that you used "osx". I don't think that works with Tiger; even privileged processes no longer get the password via getpwnam().

Consequently, you must use "oxp", and set up a PAM rule file for IMAP. So, do
        make clean
        make oxp SSLTYPE=none
        sudo cp imapd/imapd /usr/local/libexec
to update imapd to a PAM version.

As for a PAM rule file, I just copied the FTP rules:
        cd /etc/pam.d
        sudo cp ftpd imap
