Hi,

I suppose you have some sql plugin installed by default.
Try to uninstall it.

Leon Kolchinsky

HI,
i've created this folder and the smtpd.conf but i still get these errors.
For testing  purposes i created a new User and tested it. 

This is what syslog tells me

Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: sql plugin Parse the username evildad Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: sql plugin try and connect to a host Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: sql plugin trying to open db 'mail' on host 'localhost'
Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: sql plugin Parse the username evildad Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: sql plugin try and connect to a host Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: sql plugin trying to open db 'mail' on host 'localhost'
Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad saslauthd[20837]: DEBUG:
auth_pam: pam_acct_mgmt failed: User account has expired
Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad saslauthd[20837]: do_auth     
   : auth failure: [user=evildad] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM acct error] Sep 27 12:03:54 evildad imap[21012]: badlogin:

authentication failure: checkpass failed Sep 27 12:04:57 evildad master[20915]: process 21012 exited, status 0


The strange thing is the "evildad saslauthd[20837]:
DEBUG: auth_pam: pam_acct_mgmt failed: User account has expired" line. I created this account so why should it be expired...
So many questions, Sorry.

Greetings,
Evil
