Squirrelmail is on a different computer than the mail server in question. It accesses it via the IP that is in the ip_alias_map table in MySQL for that domain. Logging in manually to the Courier server brings up the same "Maildir: No such file or directory" error. The username/password authentication works; if I type the wrong password, it fails the login.. Only if I use a proper username/password pair will it give the error.

Does squirrelmail access Courier-IMAP on the same IP as squirrelmail is accessed? Does IP-based domain work for normal Courier-IMAP logins?
