Does Courier IMAP have username length restriction?

 

I created two virtual accounts: alexander and alexander.erameh using USERDB.

Telnet localhost 143

a login alexander password (This works)

 

However,

Telnet localhost 143

A login alexander.erameh password (I get the message a NO Login failed)

 

Both accounts successfully connect to POP3 (Telnet localhost 110).

 

Another thing to note is that when I run AUTHTEST alexander.erameh password, I am successfully authenticated.

 

So why is IMAP not accepting the alexander.erameh account and POP3 accepts it?

 

Alexander

I assume this Mailing list is supposed to be a place where people who do not
know, can learn a thing or two. With this kind of response, how can we
learn?
You could at least have proffered suggestions on what you think might be
causing the problem.

Sam tends to be a bit terse in his replies, but since he is the
developer, his answers are (almost) always right. :)

All of my accounts authenticate with the full email address
(user@...), so I don't see a problem with "user.name".
Double-check the settings in your IMAP client, and if you don't see
anything there, try using wireshark to sniff the connection so you can
see exactly what the conversation looks like.

Hi,

Are you working with maildirs or mbox file?

If you've set up your server with maildirs check if alexander.erameh's directory is already created before telneting port 110.

Why don't you post your server log, specially authdaemon's log, so we can see what's happening and give you some help.

As a suggestion, be sure to be more technical and specific rather than being writing just words.

Carlos.

When authentication fails, courier-imapd should generate a message in
syslog. Please find that message (or a group of 2 or 3 messages
possibly) and post that so we can see exactly *why* the authentication
is failing. Also, knowing the exact message courier imap is giving you
would be useful.
