I'm having a hard time getting IMAP before SMTP to work.
It seems like the remote ip address is not visible to get_remote_ip() in
vpopmail. I'm using qmail, vpopmail with a mysql backend and Courier-IMAP
(v3.0.8). Problem:
The remote ip is not inserted into the relay table. If I check the
lastauth
table i only get "imap" in the remote_ip field.
Any ideas?
Hi,
It is not possible at all with the 4.x series of Courier-imap. I'm not
sure about the 3.x series or maybe Binc Imap.

IMAP-before-SMTP is possible when using Courier-IMAP v3.x. However it only
works when configured "--with-authvchkpw --without-authdaemon". When
running --without-authdaemon, Courier-IMAP's authvchkpw code is able to make
use of vpopmail's roaming user functions to allow IMAP-before-SMTP
functionality. IMAP-before-SMTP is not possible when Courier-IMAP has been
complied --with-authdaemon, because in this mode the user's IP address is
not made available to the authvchkpw code (via the TCPREMOTEIP env var).
Also note that in Courier-IMAP v4.x and later, --without-authdaemon
functionality is no longer available thus preventing IMAP-before-SMTP from
working.
