frontend can see mailboxes but not messages

This my first time setting up a murder.
I can get the frontend too see all the mailboxes, but when I try to 
read a message, or even list the messages in a mailbox, the operation 
just times out.

Anyone know what the likely cause is?

We are running 2.3 from cvs.

Our proxy_authname is murder.

Using imtest I can authenticate as murder and be authorized as another 
user.

Our frontend is called tempeh, and the backend is called spam

May 24 13:58:07 spam imap[17661]: starttls: TLSv1 with cipher 
AES256-SHA (256/256 bits new) no authentication
May 24 13:58:07 spam imap[17661]: login: tempeh.cc.columbia.edu 
[128.59.59.180] tc2154 PLAIN+TLS User logged in

So it looks like the frontend is able to connect as the user.


A sample session through the frontend looks like
<1116958139<A00005 SELECT INBOX
 >1116958139>* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen \*)]
* 1 EXISTS
* 0 RECENT
* OK [UIDVALIDITY 1116865041]
* OK [UIDNEXT 2]
A00005 OK [READ-WRITE] Completed
---then it times out searching the mailbox

while if I connect directly to the backend I get
<1116958559<A00005 SELECT INBOX
 >1116958559>* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen \*)]
* 1 EXISTS
* 0 RECENT
* OK [UIDVALIDITY 1116865041]
* OK [UIDNEXT 2]
A00005 OK [READ-WRITE] Completed
<1116958559<A00006 SEARCH UNSEEN
 >1116958559>* SEARCH
A00006 OK Completed (0 msgs in 0.000 secs)
<1116958559<A00007 SEARCH DELETED
 >1116958559>* SEARCH
A00007 OK Completed (0 msgs in 0.000 secs)
<1116958559<A00008 MYRIGHTS INBOX
 >1116958559>* MYRIGHTS INBOX lrswipcda
A00008 OK Completed
<1116958559<A00009 FETCH 1 (FLAGS RFC822.SIZE UID INTERNALDATE ENVELOPE 
BODYSTRUCTURE)
--message returned----



I've tried with mulberry and apple mail.

any suggestions would be great.

thanks,

Patrick
