Hi,
I have strange problem with my mailserver - QMAIL. Everything was ok, but now (maybe after some emerge) there is problem with authentication. I install mail server as its describet in qmail/howto here in gentoo documentation.

Now when I want to connect (i tried it from webmail imp/horde too) for example from Outlook Express, i get following error:

Code:
Login failed.

Configuration:
   Account: garbi.retrieve.cz
   Server: garbi.retrieve.cz
   User name: semik@feel.cz
   Protocol: IMAP
   Port: 993
   Secure(SSL): 1
   Code: 800cccd1


Does know anybody where should be problem? In logs I didn't find any errors, but maybe I look bad...

Thx a lot for any answers,
Micban.

Go back and look at /var/log/portage and see if you can find a recently updated mail related package that could be causeing the problem. I'm a courier user but it might by that imap-ssl isn't started?

In /var/log/emerge.log I found only this:

- beceause i tried to fix this problem, i get new version of courier-imap - 3.0.8 - before i had 3.0.7

I'm sure, that imap-ssl is started. I'm connected to the server on imap-ssl port, but when e-mail client send authentification info, i'll get error.

Now i tried to use POP3 ssl connection to the mail server, and i found after this in /var/log/messages

Code:

Connection, ip=[217.77.165.35]
LOGIN FAILED, ip=[217.77.165.35]
Unexpected SSL connection shutdown.


Any idea what's wrong?

What are you authenticating qmail against?
