Yes that's the one because it's the script that contains login() and sets group/user ids and ultimately fails (I think - because it's also in another location which I will check out later) >> Look, curiosity took hold and I decided to install everything in a new VM, >> :-) >> >> FreeBSD freebsd 12.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE r341666 GENERIC amd64 >> >> (and that may be a problem, the version of bsd though I doubt it.) >> > I'm running 11.3, and I fear that the version of either Perl or openwebmail > is different between 11.3 and 12.0, > such that your test, while useful, may not have much bearing on my current > situation.

I just checked mine and it has some handy information. Checking the code quickly, you might be able to enable more verbose debugging. First check your log. Regards, Mark
