Helly Jan and All, Thank you very much for the reply. The info helped get my imap server up, but I now have a new problem. > Second: the thing that's listening on the imap port is inetd; this will > palm off an incoming connection to your imapd when properly configured > (see the output of sockstat). Thanks, I now see that inetd just pushes the socket request to whatever inetd.conf tells it. I just assumed that /libexec/imapd was a sym link or something to whatever started imapd. I should have looked, but never really understood that inetd handled requests on the fly. I always thought it started a daemon in the background and that was that. Anyway, my new problem is that when I try to check mail via imap, mozilla simply tells me 'login failed'. I know I am typing the correct account password. Is there an imap configuration file I need to configure to tell it to use a particular authentication method or something? Thanks for any info!
