Hi all
 
I have a very strange problem... I installed Cyrus imapd 2.2.8 and everything 
seems to work fine.
I checked the setup (SSL) with
    imtest -m plain -u cyrus -a cyrus -s localhost
 
works like a charm.
Outlook works great, as well as other mail clients except Outlook Express.
I can also connect via Outlook Express, get my messages and everything except 
listing all IMAP folders (IMAP folders -> Reset List). This will always show 
an error message. Down below you can see some details from 
the /var/log/imapd.log. As you can see, some TLS sessions do work, others fail 
(the one with the IMAP folders).

Does somebody have an idea?
I use
    cyrus-sasl-2.1.19
    db-4.2.52.NC (Berkeley DB 4)
    openssl-0.9.7d
 
Any help would be appreciated!
 
thx a lot
reto

admins: cyrus root apache
srvtab: /var/imap/srvtab
postuser: bb
allowanonymouslogin: no
sasl_passwd_check: saslauthd
allowplaintext:       yes
 
tls_cert_file: /var/imap/server.pem
tls_key_file: /var/imap/server.pem
