I've just upgraded my system from Fedora Core1 (which was working great) to Fedora Core 2. Several problems - I've fixed all except the one that's stumping me - retrieving mail from Postfix (which has been previously installed and has been working great for some time). Postfix receives the mail, I can send though it, but cannot get my mail. Originally, something in the install had blocked port 110 - which is now fixed (verified with telnet localhost 110). I strongly suspect the problem is the new SMTP authentication with Cyrus - but I'm having a tough time locating documentation on what needs to change. Is there documentation on the procedure? This was all working properly before the upgrade. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 2 (kernel 2.6.5-1.358) Postfix (2.0,18-4) How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. /etc/init.d/postfix start 2. Using any email client (even squirrelmail), try to get mail 3. Actual results: Using Mozilla - "Send of password did not succeed. Mail server (ipaddress) responded: Invalid Login" Using Squirrelmail - "Unknown user or password incorrect." Expected results: Additional info:
Actually, I had restarted the server without saving the saslauthd service. Once that's started, the error messages are: Mozilla: "Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server (ip) responded: Unable to locate maildrop." SquirrelMail: "ERROR : Could not complete request. Query: SELECT "INBOX" Reason Given: Mailbox does not exist" I have not created Cyrus users - have not been able to locate documentation that appears authorative for FC2.
Please verify this problem with the latest Fedora Core package (2.1.x).
This really looks like a problem with POP or IMAP (whichever your MUA is configured to use), not with Postfix.
Closing as NOTABUG.
