Hi, In my env we have quite a number of old PC which are running windows95. I have installed the thunderbird and outlook97 with the right configuration to dovecot. Everytime I starts the mail client it shows the following, dovecot: Oct 09 10:56:45 Info: imap-login: Disconnected: rip=172.24.65.60, lip=172.24.66.24 only then it shows the login screen. After submit the password, it doesn't seems to login properly. If I use the Outlook Express, it runs ok on the same machine? I can send and read email. I trace the process using strace but it failed since the pid got killed everytime I starts that two mail client. In order to make sure my dovecot run correctly, I run all mail clients from XP and it works like charm. Can someone share with my what should I do next or how to debug further? Thanks.

Can't think of any reason off the top of my head that TBird would work differently on Win95 than XP. What version of dovecot? Also, what platform/version is dovecot running on? Dovecot -n output (and any other config details not provided by that output) is also generally needed. -- Best regards, Charles

Set auth_verbose=yes to see if this is the case. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
