[Dovecot] IMAP and SMTP Authentication

[Roderick A. Anderson]

I'm a bit further along but haven't figured out why Authentication is 
still failing.  I've tried a telnet to port 143 and openssl connection 
to 993.

The command I issued, per the debugging page on the wiki, is:

	a login info at aesoft-sbcs.com crap

Here is a snapshot from my logs (yup second try and blank lines to make 
it easier for me to read).

Oct  7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH     2 
PLAIN  service=imap     secured lip=216.64.180.226      rip=66.193.34.88 
        lport=993       rport=65026 
resp=AGluZm9AYWVzb2Z0LXNiY3MuY29tAGNyYXA=

Oct  7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): passwd-file 
/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/passwd: Read 3 users

Oct  7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): 
passwd-file(info at aesoft-sbcs.com,66.193.34.88): lookup: 
user=info at aesoft-sbcs.com file=/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/passwd

Oct  7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): 
passwd-file(info at aesoft-sbcs.com,66.193.34.88): unknown user

Oct  7 08:17:22 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): client out: FAIL    2 
user=info at aesoft-sbcs.com

And here is the relevant line from 	/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/passwd

info:{PLAIN}crap:5000:5000::/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/info

Yes there are three users in the file.

What is puzzling me is why the source connection's IP is showing up in 
the /lookup/.

I did not create the directory

	/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/info/Maildir

Should I?

I've attached the out put from postconf -n and dovecot -n since I'm 
pretty sure I've got some setting wrong.

Thanks for any ideas or clues.
