RE: [vchkpw] Problems connecting courier-imap to vpopmail
Thanks for the effort. =) It was a missconfiguration in squirrelmail (plus my lack of IMAP knowledge =).

Regarding the first question: Courier-IMAP has different authentication plugins. Make sure you have the authvchkpw module activated. IIRC, you should also disable authdaemon, as it doesn't work correctly with vpopmail (at least in older versions; I didn't track it). Regarding the second question: Courier-IMAP has good logging capabilities. Check on the console first, using "telnet localhost 143", doing a manual IMAP connect. This will make clear if the problem is with Courier-IMAP and not with a misconfiguration in SquirrelMail. Another option is to use BincIMAP instead of Courier-IMAP, which uses the original vchkpw programm (it has a checkpassword-compatible interface). From my point of view, it's a lot easier to set up.
