I've had similar problems with Cyrus 2.1.4 and PAM authentification. Here is how it works now: in imapd.conf: sasl_pwcheck_method: pwcheck (that requires the pwcheck daemon running) and to use cyradm: $ cyradm --user cyrus --auth plain localhost maybe you should try this... did you try to login using pop ? here is an example: mail:/ # telnet localhost pop3 Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK mailserver Cyrus POP3 v2.1.4 server ready <1669253611.1021282381@mailserver> user cyrus +OK Name is a valid mailbox pass mypassword -ERR [SYS/PERM] Unable to open maildrop quit +OK Connection closed by foreign host. mail:/ # This helped me to locate the errors source. Here there is an error because the user cyrus doesn't have an Imap mailbox, but there is no user/authentification error. Best regards, Alexandre Suter
