Default ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server

Hi folks,


Ubuntu 7.04 server amd64
Postfix 2.3.8
SquirrelMail version 1.4.11


The Mail Server has been running for sometimes. Previously whenever a new account is created the Maildir including its subdirectories will be automatically created upon receipt of the 1st mail.


Just created a new account and sent a new mail to it. But no Maildir was created automatically. On starting SM and login the new account a warning "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server" popup, unable to login. Other users login w/o problem.


Please advise where shall I check and how to fix the problem. TIA


B.R.

Thumbs up

I too got the same problem. If you login as root in the squirrel mail it will show the error of ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP Server. So create a account as users with your name and add his account in the mail group. I think you can login into the mail box. I solved the problem by doing this. I dono how will work 4 u.... Try !!

Hi,


Thanks for your advice.


I fixed the problem later. But unfortunately I can't recall how to do it. It has been sometimes.
