I'm can't get courier-imap to authenticate with vpopmail.

Setup
Debian testing
Qmail working
VQAdmin working
QmailAdmin working

Details
I've created the user and domain jared@test.com using VQAdmin and Qmailadmin. Using this account I can log into QmailAdmin. I've edited the authdaemonrc and imapd to use "authvchkpw". I've also set debugging in both to "2", but I this is the output that I get. Personally this log is useless It doesn't tell me anything I didn't already know from the failed login, nor does it give me any idea where the breakdown in authentication is located.

Jun 28 15:41:05 localhost imaplogin: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Jun 28 15:41:05 localhost imaplogin: DISCONNECTED, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], headers=0, body=0

Thanks to whoever can figure this out. I sure can't.

i have setup a system like yours (qmail, vpopmail, courier-imap) and it worked flawlessly.

how did you installed courier-imap? and vpopmail?(./configure options, etc.)

please state it as clearly as you can so that the fellas here could get to you..

I origianlly installed Courier-imap with the debian package. Since my original post. I've discovered a few things. There is a command with the debian package called courier-config. It shows you what is compiled into the package. --with-authvchkpw isn't compiled in to the package. So I'm now building from souce. I'll post how it goes later. I still don't understand why that doesn't show up in the log as an invalid authentication.
