Symptoms

Courier-IMAP authentication does not work after new qmail host is installed

Cause

x84_64 courier-imap package was installed on the server, whereas POA supports only i386 courier-imap.

Resolution

  1. Remove the not supported x86_64 version of package courier-imap and courier-auth
  2. Install courier-imap-*.parallels.i386, courier-authlib-*.parallels.i386
  3. Make sure "maxperip" set to 200

    $TCPD -maxperip=200 -maxprocs=100 -pid=$POP3D_PID_FILE 110 $POP3_ARGS
    $TCPD -maxperip=200 -maxprocs=100 -pid=$POP3D_SSL_PID_FILE 995 $COURIERTLS -server -tcpd $POP3_ARGS
    

    in file /etc/init.d/courier-imap

4.Restart courier-auth, courier-imap service:

    # service courier-auth restart
    # service courier-imap restart
