Mitu,

You were right,
I did have  have "unixhierarchysep: yes"
commented in my /etc/imapd.conf

I have uncommented the line
created another user via cyradm
but the same problem

(Also after creating the user in Web-Cyradm,
do I have create mailbox via command line cyradm.)

here is my list mail box in cyradm
------------------------
ns3.indiaaccess.com> lm
Drafts (\HasNoChildren)
Sent (\HasNoChildren)
Trash (\HasNoChildren)
sarwar.ns3.indiaaccess.com (\HasNoChildren)
sarwar/indiaaccess/org (\HasNoChildren)
sarwaransari/ns3/indiaaccess/com (\HasNoChildren)
user/sarwar.ns3.indiaaccess.com (\HasNoChildren)
ns3.indiaaccess.com>

Also when I try to login via SQ to imap user
the auth log says:
-------------------------
