It might be checkpassword, and it might be Binc. When bincimapd exits with this return code, it is accompanied by some lines in the log that say what was wrong. If checkpassword exists with this code, there is no clue to what might be wrong. If the problem is reproducable, you could attach to xinetd or tcpserver (whichever you are using) using "strace -s 1024 -f -p <pid> 2>&1 >dump" and email the dump file to me personally (passwords are in the trace in clear text, and it's not necessary that everyone sees them ;-)). I can extract the necessary information from the trace, and post an answer to what is wrong on this list.
