I realize this is a qmail forum, but I'm having a problem with courier-imap, and have always received great help here.

The problem is when I try to telnet to imap2:
telnet localhost imap2
I get:
trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE ACL ACL2=UNION] Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2005 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for distribution information.

but then when I try to login I get:
ab login carlos@rockwithme.org shimmy-ba-ba123boobie
* BYE Temporary problem, please try again later
Connection closed by foreign host.

and in the syslog I have:
Mar 21 21:32:07 imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=carlos@rockwithme.org, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Mar 21 21:32:07 imapd: authentication error: No such file or directory
Mar 21 21:34:40 imapd: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: No such file or directory
Mar 21 21:34:40 imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Mar 21 21:34:40 imapd: authentication error: No such file or directory

I don't know what I'm missing, and I've been going absolutely nuts with squirrelmail since about 2 days ago, when I figured I'd give it a try. any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated!!
 
obviously my imap config was all messed up, so I recompiled vpopmail, courier-authlib, courier-imap, and reset squirrelmail to default, and voila . . . couldn't get ssl to work though . . .
 
Squirrelmail uses TLS, which is supported by courier-imap, and installed along side of SSL. I may have had some kind of config error with TLS, but I didn't need either because Squirrelmail is on the same server as courier-imap and finally qmail. I just wanted to see if I could get SSL working . . . guess not!
