I've been using uw-imapd for quite a while, and it's been working fairly well for me on linux. I'm migrating my services to OS X, and I've hit a snag. I'm having a bit of trouble with this and figure it must be a newbie error, but frankly have not seen anything to help me troubleshoot this in the on line documentation.

Essentially I've got the imapd built for OS X, and it's running properly in xinetd, but I can't seem to log in properly. I see it says "LOGINDISABLED" but I don't know why. I built imapd with the complex command "make osx" AFAICT, I'm not supposed to need to build a config file for imapd - right? How do I enable login?

Also, is this the right forum for asking this kind of question?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Regards,
Tom Cooper

If I try to use SSL to authenticate with imapd, I see the following in Thunderbird

Alert

If I say Never use secure connection in Thunderbird
Alert
