Hi! Logging in with the same use I tested already before, I now get this message in the debug log written by dovecot:
pop3-login: Warning: Auth process not responding, delayed sending initial response (greeting): user=<> The SSL negotiation did complete. But then there went something wrong with the user authentification. As ist did work already before, I guess, it is not the clients fault. System where dovecot (pop3 and imap) is installed: latest Ubuntu. My changes after successful repeated pop3 connection with by the testing user: 1. Turning debug logging on 2. minor changes I did search a lot for a solution to this problem but still have no clue how to solve it. Hmm... guess my "minor changes" caused the problem: Found this in debug log now for the start of SSL: "pop3-login: Error: auth: connect(director) failed: No such file or directory" Need to read more about these directors, I think. Maybe they are not needed at the system at all. Jutta
