I set up imap temporarily to get mail off a server, however when trying to retrieve mail with username and password from Thunderbird I find an error in the server's logs;
May 6 16:11:05 example_server imapd[5016]: Login disabled user=user1 auth=user1 host=[192.168.1.100]
You should see something like this: May 7 01:41:55 nimrodel imapd[651]: imaps SSL service init from 192.168.1.12 May 7 01:42:01 nimrodel imapd[651]: Authenticated user=pruebas host=nimrodel.valinor [192.168.1.12] mech=PLAIN May 7 01:42:07 nimrodel imapd[653]: imaps SSL service init from 192.168.1.12 May 7 01:42:07 nimrodel imapd[653]: Authenticated user=pruebas host=nimrodel.valinor [192.168.1.12] mech=PLAIN
This is only temporary so I am looking for a quick fix, since I don't intend to leave imap on the server. I think imap wants to use pam to authenticate, but I don't mind having clear text passwords go through. Any ideas how to enable the login? Suse 10.2
No way, that does not work. You have to tell thunderbird to use SSL. TLS or plain will not work, nor secure password. I assume you are trying uw_imap. Assuming you use xinetd, you need to configure /etc/xinetd.d/imap like this: pop2, pop3, disable. imap, disable (they will not work). service imaps { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/imapd flags = IPv4 } - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
