You surely shouldn't leave that setting (preauth > connection), but for debugging, it may be useful. Hi Baltasar, Thanks for your reply. I feel as though I have tried everything ( but obviously have missed something ) In any case, I tried "lmtpd -a" and tested the connections again. Below is the output from lmtptest, cyradm and the imtest to the imapd port. Still no joy via lmtp. # From the lmtptest interaction mail from:<sforster@xxxxxxxxx> 250 2.1.0 ok rcpt to:<sforster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 550-Mailbox unknown. Either there is no mailbox associated with this 550-name or you do not have authorization to see it. 550 5.1.1 User unknown # The output from /var/log/mail.log showing unsuccesful listing of mailbox via lmtp: Apr 6 19:47:47 malthus cyrus/lmtp[4281]: accepted connection Apr 6 19:47:47 malthus cyrus/lmtp[4281]: connection from malthus.kidik.net [81.187.233.169] preauth'd as postman Apr 6 19:53:08 malthus cyrus/lmtp[4281]: verify_user(monkey.kidik.net!user.sforster) failed: Mailbox does not exist ... # cyradm output showing the existence of the 'sforster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' mailbox and the open permissions. sforster@malthus:/etc$ cyradm --user cyrus localhost Password: localhost> lm user.sforster (\HasNoChildren) user.sforster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (\HasNoChildren) user.sforster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (\HasNoChildren) localhost> lam usage: listaclmailbox mailbox localhost> lam user.sforster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx all lrswipcda anyone lrswipcda localhost> # Finally, I list the interaction with imapd using imtest.
