Hi there,
after researching a lot of how-to's and list-archives I come to ask for help.
Problem is: I can not authenticate imap/pop-users using auxprop and /etc/sasldb2
On the same machine runs postfix and authentication via TLS and SASL/auxprop works fine. So I can send mails but can not retrieve mails via pop/imap.
When trying to do so, /var/log/messages reads like below when trying to authenticate via login & tls
Aug 2 00:00:23 master master[23882]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/pop3d

or else via plaintext & tls

I run cyrus-imapd-2.2.3 on SuSE Linux 9.1. There is a whole lot of other cyrus / sasl rpm's installed:
cyrus-sasl-2.1.18-29 cyrus-imapd-2.2.3-79 cyrus-sasl-crammd5-2.1.18-29 cyrus-sasl-digestmd5-2.1.18-29 cyrus-sasl-otp-2.1.18-29 cyrus-sasl-devel-2.1.18-29 cyrus-sasl-gssapi-2.1.18-29 cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.18-29
The user in question is listed with sasldblistusers2 (and works when sending mails).
/etc/imapd.conf reads like: sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop sasl_mech_list: plain login auth
# ls -l /etc/sasldb2 -rw-r----- 1 cyrus mail 12288 Jul 28 00:11 /etc/sasldb2
I suppose that in some way the authentication mechanism is not ok or not supported - but I an't figure out any details about - and may also be completely misdirected.
So if anyone coud give me a clue, it would be most appreciated (as likewise any hint on how to make imapd more verbous for debugging).
thanks & regards
