[courier-users] Failed to chdir doesn't return error, AND pop3d fails auth, but IMAP works

[Jonathan A. <ja...@ce...>]

Hello,

  Two issues I have. The first is if a user tries logging in, and they
  don't have permissions to access a directory, courier-imap logs
  chdir: failed, but doesn't return an error message to the user. This
  results in the mail client sitting and waiting for a response from
  the server that it isn't getting. I'm using
  courier-imap-1.5.3.20020916 so it could be possible it may have been
  fixed. If not, I believe it may be an idea to return an error, or at
  least return a login failed.

  My second issue I posted about a couple of weeks ago.  I have both
  imapd, and pop3d authenticating via authdaemond.  I have authdaemond
  setup to use authshadow.  IMAP can authenticate fine, but when
  trying to login to POP3 with the same username/password (or any
  username/pass for that matter) it always fails.  The log messages
  just return 'login failed'.  The configuration files are default
  except for authdaemonrc which says authshadow.  The configure line
  is as follows:

./configure  --sysconfdir=/etc/courier --prefix=/usr/local/courier-imap
--with-authshadow --without-authmysql --without-authldap
--without-authpam --without-authpgsql --with-mailuser=courier
--with-authchangepwdir=/usr/local/courier-imap/libexec/authlib
--with-db=gdbm --with-userdb=/etc/userdb
--with-makedatprog='/usr/local/courier-imap/libexec/makedatprog'
--without-socks --with-authchangepwdir=/var/tmp/dev/null

  Anybody got *any* hints or clues? I posted this on Oct 5th, but
  cannot find it in the archives.
