After having tried couple days now I suspect the problem coming from Cyrus-imapd. The complete story is as follows; I have an unfinished test "One Time Password" which has been posted on this mailing list. I followed the document installing; cyrus-imapd-2.2 as well as SquirrelMail Because I can't locate cyrus-imapd-utils and cyrus-sasl on Ubuntu repo I stopped there. Then I continued setup SquirrelMail. I have installed following packages; uw-imapd uw-imapd-ssl uw-mailutils gamin ipopd ipopd-ssl libc-client-dev etc. Now I found on running; # netstat -tap | grep imap tcp 0 0 *:imap2 *:* LISTEN 3881/cyrmaster cyrmaster is running NOT uw-imapd. However cyrmaster is the process controlling all Cyrus processes. Performed following steps; $ sudo /etc/init.d/cyrus2.2 stop Stopping Cyrus IMAPd: cyrmaster. $ sudo netstat -tap | grep imap No printout. cyrmaster stops running. $ sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart No printout $ sudo netstat -tap | grep imap $ sudo netstat -tap | grep imap2 Both w/o printout uw-imapd is NOT working. Now I'm considering erasing following packages; uw-imapd uw-imapd-ssl uw-mailutils gamin ipopd ipopd-ssl libc-client-dev etc. Try to download cyrus-imapd-utils and cyrus-sasl somewhere and get them installed running cyrus-imapd instead. Because I need those packages to finish my pending test on "One Time Password". Could you please shed me some light? TIA B.R.
