pop3d-ssl: LOGIN FAILED

[jeanjacquesjeanjacques]

Hello,

I'm running a server using debian stable, and i've installed the latest version of ISPconfig.
Everything is fine excepted that i can't connect to the pop server using a mail client.
In order to trouble shoot i've made a cat /var/log/mail.err and this is what i get: Nov 21 18:16:33 hulk pop3d-ssl: LOGIN FAILED
I really checked numnerous times my user and passwd informations, i'm using as login: web2_test and passwd: secret.

As i previously had a working version of postfix i was thinking that maybe it could interfer with my actual main.cf, i looked at it but found nothing.

I would really appreciate if you could look at my main.cf to see if everything is fine.
Could you tell me if there's another log where i should look at in order to get more interesting informations ?

I've readen everything that i could find in the archives of this forum but i still have the same error message inside my log file, "pop3d-ssl: LOGIN FAILED".
i've restarted postfix and try to do whatever was possible to do...:eek:
I can't find nothing special in my config file, if someone could have a look at it it would be really nice.

Many thanks !

After more investigations i presume that the problem is not coming from my config file.
I have inside /etc/courier/authdaemonrc this line:
authmodulelist="authmysql"

So if i understand i need to change this in order to ISPconfig to be able to find the real users of the system ?

Your main.cf looks ok now.

After more investigations i presume that the problem is not coming from my config file.
I have inside /etc/courier/authdaemonrc this line:
authmodulelist="authmysql"
You don't need the courier-authdaemon at all. I'd remove it from your system.

I suggest that you re-install your server following this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge

Hello,

I had to change the line

authmodulelist="authmysql" inside /etc/courier/authdaemonrc to authmodulelist="authpam"

and afterward i had to restart the daemon.

I wanted to thank the developpers of ISPconfig because it's really a great tool, i was looking for such s thing for a long time ago.

Many thanks !!!
