Have you made the appropriate entry in /etc/inetd/conf? It must look like this: imap4 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/imapd imapd BTW, this is explained in the docs/BUILD document of the imap-uw source distribution. > Then trying to send an email with that client, get a message back > saying, do not allow relaying.
