Hi everyone,
I've been trying to get Squirrelmail running on my system, but I'm getting
nowwhere with this particular error.
I'm running squirrelmail on FreeBSD4.8, squirrelmail version 1.4.2
ERROR
Error connecting to IMAP server: .
2 : No such file or directory
I have imap enabled in inetd.conf.
I'm not seeing any error messages in my apache log, or in maillog.
It looks like the login process doesn't actually get to the point where it
tries to log in. It just "fails" the login without actually checking the
uname/pword from what I can see.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
