Is dovecot an option in fbsd package or ports? I think it is a much better pop/imap server. I have not had much experience with uw and I hope to keep it that way so I don't have much in the way of uw specific assistance other than maybe point out you did not indicate server version, any non default server config settings, encryption used, etc. Also I would check for verbose logging on the server and also try another client, even telnet thru an imap login assuming plaintext is available ------Original Message------ From: Ryan Coleman Sender: tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Subject: [tclug-list] Issues with imap-uw Sent: Jan 10, 2010 8:20 PM I'm having authentication issues with imap-uw. I've tried using Thunderbird with the same problem. In /var/log/maillog I'm getting the following: Jan 10 20:18:26 server imapd[16050]: Unexpected client disconnect, while reading line user=??? host=[10.0.1.1] Jan 10 20:18:26 server imapd[16051]: Unexpected client disconnect, while reading line user=??? host=[10.0.1.1] Jan 10 20:18:26 server imapd[16052]: Unexpected client disconnect, while reading line user=??? host=[10.0.1.1] Jan 10 20:18:26 server imapd[16053]: Unexpected client disconnect, while reading line user=??? host=[10.0.1.1] This is my second FreeBSD 8 server unit this week -- long story -- and "out of the box" the last imap-uw installation worked without a hitch. Any ideas? I've installed with plaintext and ssl support.
