I just logged in and ran the commands. you can see my login, but it?s not
logging any errors? Although it won?t let me select my inbox on that user?

server? I can telnet into my dovecot install and login just fine with my user
locally? But when I try to add the account from my phone, computer, or
telnetting from my local computer, it just hangs and eventually kicks back a
generic error saying it can?t be added? Where can I start looking? I?m hosted
with amazon web services and I?m waiting on them to approve my request to white
list my IP on my instance, but that should only restrict my ability to send
email out on port 25? I should still be able to operate locally?
