Problems with authentication

[Michael Obster]

Hi,

thx for the people who showed me the good documentation ;-)

Ok. I have now tracked the problem a little bit.

root at gutmann:/usr/lib# imtest -m login -a cyrus localhost
S: * OK gutmann Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.11 server ready

Looks like for some reason cyrus cannot authenticate my users. I use sasl 2.1.10.

Here is my /etc/imapd.conf:
configdirectory: /var/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
admins: cyrus
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
