I've just set-up PostFix + Courier + Roundcube using the following site for my instrcutions: http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/

I was attempting to log into my webmail and it failed.

Checking the logs I was directed to look at the IMAP setup and it appears that's where the issue is

I've done the following:

  • Checked that logs were enabled in /etc/courier/authdaemonrc

  • Run the following commands

    me@mybox:/var/log/roundcube$ telnet localhost 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT
THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE ACL ACL2=UNION STARTTLS]
Courier-IMAP ready.  Copyright 1998-2011 Double Precision, Inc.  See COPYING for distribution information.

a login username password
BYE Temporary problem, please try again later
Connection closed by foreign host.`

Where else can I look for errors or information on why this isn't working?

EDIT: Checked the logs and found a typo in a config I now get the following

May  5 00:25:09 ip-172-31-23-199 imapd: 
me@example.com: No such file or directory

Edit 2: That sent the correct data; however, roubdcube is looking for data to be in var/mail/virtual/psukardi/new

While it's showing up in /home/psukardi/Maildir/new

If you follow the tutorial, you might notice that the author use MySQL as user Database. So, if you create new user, you can insert it in MySQL table.

Now, the next part is creating Maildir folder. You have two options here

  1. Send email to new account and let postfix virtual agent to create the maildir for you.
  2. Use maildirmake utility from courier.
