Things I learned the hard way: * imap runs normally, but refuses to accept any password from any user. SuSE modified it to accept only imaps (even locally) - so, why imap is still there???
In the interest of correctness (and assuming you are using the imap-2002 package), it was the maintainers that changed the way their imap worked, not SuSE. They changed to a more secure no plaintext password unless in an ssl encrypted session. It can be compiled to use plaintext passwords, but it will prompt you in the middle of building warning that this is insecure.
