dovecot - Jun 2006 - strange behaviour: connecting to mysql, but no queries after upgrade on ubuntu...

hi all,

I'm having trouble using dovecot with mysql after upgrading to 1.0.beta3 on 
ubuntu. according to the mysql log, dovecot connects but doesn't issue any 
queries..

any hints what might be wrong or where I should look?

Cheers,

I'm seeing the same behavior under Debian Sid. (First time I've tried
it,
so I don't know whether the problem is connected to a particular update.)

I can make an imap connection using passwd-file authentication. When I
switch to mysql, the mysql log shows a connection when dovecot starts but
no further activity. The reply to the imap client is
  NO Temporary authentication failure.

In the mail.log, I see:

Jun 16 06:25:57 server dovecot: auth(default): client in:
AUTH^I1^IPLAIN^Iservice=IMAP^Ilip=192.168.1.2^Irip=192.168.1.3^Iresp=AGd1ZXN0QHNhZHQuY29tAGZvbw=Jun
16 06:25:57 server dovecot: child 4951 (auth-worker) killed with signal 11
Jun 16 06:25:57 server dovecot: auth(default): client out:

Jun 16 06:25:57 server dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login:
user=<foo@sample.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.1.2, lip=192.168.1.3

Any clues?
