I've set up a postfix +dovecot configuration on my debian jessie.
But I have a connection issue. When I try to connect from thunderbird it
doesn not work. When I check out my debug logs I get :
auth-worker(22252): Info: pam(myuser,hostIP): pam_authenticate()
failed: Authentication failure (password mismatch?) (given password:
correctPassword)
Running doveadm auth test tells me I can authenticate with the same
password.
So I tried connecting via openssl.
When I connect from my local host, everything goes fine :
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE
IDLE AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN AUTH=CRAM-MD5] Dovecot ready.
a login myUser myPassword
a OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE

But when I run the same thing from my remote laptop, I never get any
reply from the imap server. It's as if the request wasn't reaching the
server. Although I do get a first reply from the server, I just can't
log in.

(... and then nothing...)
I would:
1) sniff the connection on the mail server, if there is traffic after
sending the login
2) test if you can log in locally while the remote connection hangs
3) does PAM performs some IP checks?
