Dear all,
I have installed cyrus imap on suse ES9 mail server , and want to use POP3 for mails and authenticate users from /etc/shadow. So I add all users to /etc/password and their passwords to /etc/shadow
For authenticate from shadow file , I changed
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
to
sasl_pwcheck_method: shadow
and no other changes...
But when i try to login to system using POP
I got following error from log/messages
