Hi Dan,

many thanks for your hints. I've found a tool called pluginviewer that
comes with the sasl package which creates this output:

This is what I have in my imapd.conf:

#sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN

As the first line is commented out, I guess all sasl_pwcheck_methods will
be used as you described in your e-mail.

Ok, that was missing in my imapd.conf. I've put it in now...

However, things still don't seem to work:

raimund@callisto # /etc/init.d/cyrus restart
Shutting down IMAP/POP3 service (cyrus-imapd)            done
Starting IMAP/POP3 service (cyrus-imapd)                 done

^-Looks ok...

raimund@callisto # netstat -lntp |grep 143
tcp     0   0 0.0.0.0:143    0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN   13298/master

^-Also looks ok...

raimund@callisto # rm /etc/sasldb2
raimund@callisto # saslpasswd2 raimund
Password:
Again (for verification):
raimund@callisto # sasldblistusers2
raimund@callisto: userPassword

^-Looks ok... (?)

raimund@callisto # chown cyrus /etc/sasldb2
raimund@callisto # imtest -u raimund callisto

Even with -m login it's not working:

# imtest -u raimund -m login callisto

Can you give me another hint about what's going wrong here?

Cheers,
Raimund
