dovecot - Jan 2008 - Problem: "Missing IMAP reply key: F"

Hi all:

I installed dovecot v1.0 (on Mac OS X) and want to connect to is on
localhost via Pine or Alpine, but it fails. Pine's debug mode tells me
the following:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Debug output of the Pine program (debug=2 debug_imap=4). Version 4.64 (OSX)
[...]
Terminal type: screen
About to open folder "INBOX"    inbox is: "INBOX"
IMAP 14:40:22 1/11 mm_log babble: Trying IP address [::1]
IMAP 14:40:22 1/11 mm_log warning: Connection failed to localhost,143:
Connection refused
IMAP 14:40:22 1/11 mm_log babble: Trying IP address [127.0.0.1]
IMAP DEBUG 14:40:22 1/11: F
IMAP 14:40:22 1/11 mm_notify warning: {localhost}inbox: Missing IMAP reply key:
F
IMAP 14:40:22 1/11 mm_notify bye: {localhost}inbox: [CLOSED] IMAP connection
broken (server response)
IMAP 14:40:22 1/11 mm_log error: [CLOSED] IMAP connection broken (server
response)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I use the options "disable_plaintext_auth = no" and "ssl_disable
= yes",
because I don't need encryption. (I only access the server from
localhost.)

What does "Missing IMAP reply key: F" mean?
Any easy way to solve the problem?

Thanks for any hint!
Claus

No idea. Rather set auth_debug=yes on Dovecot's side and look at the  
logs.
