Hello

it's me again. My Dovecot now runs, I can start and stop without  
trouble. Thank you very much for your help.

Now I have trouble with the authentication. I always get:

- -----------------------------
 >telnet macpro imap
Trying 85.158.176.48...
Connected to macpro.krischik.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK Dovecot ready.
1 LOGIN martin xxxxx
1 NO Authentication failed.
- -----------------------------

And this with a plain text authentication used for testing:

- -----------------------------
   # passwd-like file with specified location
   # <doc/wiki/AuthDatabase.PasswdFile.txt>
   passdb passwd-file {
     # Path for passwd-file
     args = /opt/local/etc/dovecot/passwd.dovecot
   }
- -----------------------------

Maybe someone spend to much time: it there a best practice for  
authentication on MacOS.

Martin

PS: I am already squeezing my Microsoft mouse - only then there is no  
Exposé appearing ;-).
