Re: ipop3/imap4 login problem
What operating system are you using? You seem to have obtained a modified distribution, because there is no such build option as -D WITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT in the UW distribution. Have you tried the original UW distribution, on ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap.tar.Z -- Mark -- http://staff.washington.edu/mrc Science does not emerge from voting, party politics, or public debate.

Ok. :) Now, how is that possible if 64763's INBOX is u+rw, with everyone else (including those in the mailuser group) lacking permission? [...] -- Sahil Tandon

Hi Frode, No, we're not using RedHat's RPM's. I've compiled our own.
