The problem is when I try to authenticate to the IMAP server using Mozilla, it sends the user name as [EMAIL PROTECTED] That username is not in the sasldb, so then the user cannot authenticate.
Is there anyway to fix this on the server side? I don't know if it can be fixed in Mozilla, and even if it could be, I can't expect the users to know how to reconfigure Mozilla.
I fixed this by writing a little shell script that I use to actually add my users to my sasldb2. It adds both the domain.tld that is specified on the command line and also adds a mail.domain.tld entry, as well. I also use this script to change passwords, when that's required, so that I don't have to manually do it for each entry.
I can send the script to you if you would like, but it's a pretty simple little hack job. :-)
