Hi Igor,

What do you get in syslog (authlog)?
I get these errors:
Nov  6 20:03:17 dev2 pop3[15192]: DBERROR: reading
/var/imap/db/skipstamp,
assuming the worst: No such file or directory
Nov  6 20:03:18 dev2 pop3[15192]: skiplist: recovered

Is saslauthd running?
Yes it is.

If saslauthd is running, you will need to specify sasl_saslauthd_path
param in imapd.conf.
I don't see this parameter mentioned in the imapd.conf man page.  It is the
path to the saslauthd binary?
No.
This a cyrus sasl param which can be specified in imapd.conf via sasl_ 
prefix.  See sasl_option in imapd.conf.

sasl_saslauthd_path: /usr/sbin/saslauthd
A Google search suggested I do this:
Google is great, but I'd always start with the source distribution first. 
See $cyrus-sasl-src/doc.

sasl_saslauthd_path: /var/run/saslauthd/mux
Based on your saslauthd startup you need to use (unless you have some 
vendor specific cyrus-sasl version):
sasl_saslauthd_path: /var/run/saslauthd/mux/mux

I haven't found what this value actually is supposed to be yet though.
