This looks very strange. Try connecting manually:

telnet localhost 143

And issue the command "1 login <username> <password>" without the quotes. 
See what happens.

No, vchkpw should do the job for you.

Sorry, at this stage there is no extra debug info but I think we may be 
able to solve the problem still.

The authenticator is called "vchkpw". Your file used "chkpw" - are you 
sure this is the right authenticator? Have you tried using the full path 
of this authenticator?
