Getting IMAP working 1

[serializer]

I thought I did everything to get IMAP work working but apparently it is not enough. What I have done is to set services to auto start.

I am able to telnet to port 143 on that server and it answers ok.

I have verified that IMAP is enabled on the user in the administration console.

The problem is that I get login failures. I first tested this with Thunderbird and it just returned wrong username or password. Then I wanted to telnet myself to test what happens.

This is the information I get:

* OK The Microsoft Exchange IMAP4 service is ready.
? LOGIN Administrator@domain.com myPassword
? BAD Command received in Invalid state

Any ideas?

Since you are not using the SSL port (993), in the IMAP properties, change "Secure Logon" to "Plain text Logon" and try again.
