Eric,

Adding those additional mechanisms seems to have solved the problem.

I'll attempt to update the wiki page (as long as no one minds, of course).

Thanks!

Scott

After changing over to Dovecot IMAP last night (using the instructions on
the wiki exactly), some of my users are now unable to log into their email
accounts using an email client (right now Outlook 2007 and Apple Mail
program).  Webmail does not seem to be effected.

Here is the dovecot log message that I am getting that seems out of place.
I configured my Mac using the Apple Mail program, and I get the same
message.  I am using the standard (non-ssl) IMAP ports.

05-14 09:13:37 imap-login: Info: Disconnected (tried to use disabled
plaintext auth)


If I change over my Apple Mail client to use SSL, I can access my qmail
accounts and all is well.

Any ideas?

Scott

 

Try
 mechanisms = plain login digest-md5 cram-md5
in you dovecot.conf file.

FWIW,
disable_plaintext_auth = yes
is also a good idea unless your users are all local.

(I apologize that I haven't reviewed the dovecot wiki page on this yet).
