That "localhost.localdomain" could be coming not from "imapd", but from 
"syslogd". That IS strange. Chack to see if your /etc/svc.conf or some 
similar file defines the order of name resolving services as "bind, 
hosts" or some such nonsense. Also, check out what you get from 
"hostname" command. I've seen installation which were drawing hosname 
from the DNS, based on the first configured IP address...

This is for VirtualDomains, the domain that is assumed for logins that 
leave out domain part.

The logs still do not explain why it is failing. What are the errors in 
this case?

Nix.
