hello list,
I am attempting to sync two imap servers using the imapsync perl script. It seems handy and easy.
Here's what happens when I try to do this:
#
# Postfix master process configuration file. For details on the format
# of the file, see the master(5) manual page (command: "man 5 master").
# -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes
# -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject
#smtps inet n - n - - smtpd
virtual unix - n n - - virtual
lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp
anvil unix - - n - 1 anvil
scache unix - - n - 1 scache
amavis unix - - - - 2 smtp
-o smtp_data_done_timeout=1200
-o smtp_send_xforward_command=yes

I can log into both imap servers without any problem. Server1 is a zimbra server and Server2 is a plain vanilla postfix setup with courier imap. I believe the problem is with courier authlib and the advertised capabilities of that server.
Info: host mail.example1.com says it has NO CAPABILITY for AUTHENTICATE LOGIN
This is my authmodulelist on server2.
authmodulelist="authuserdb authpam authpgsql authldap authmysql authcustom authpipe"
This is all I see in the postfix logs on the second server when the authentication failure happens:
Dec 3 22:54:59 li135-81 imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:69.164.220.81]
Dec 3 22:55:01 li135-81 imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=bluethundr, ip=[::ffff:69.164.220.81]
Dec 3 22:55:06 li135-81 imapd: Disconnected, ip=[::ffff:69.164.220.81], time=7
Dec 3 22:55:15 li135-81 imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Dec 3 22:55:15 li135-81 imapd: LOGIN, user=bluethundr at exmaple2.com, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], port=[57141], protocol=IMAP
Dec 3 22:55:15 li135-81 imapd: LOGOUT, user=bluethundr at example2.com, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], headers=0, body=0, rcvd=94, sent=460, time=0
I'm thinking I need to find a way for server2 to authenticate via plaintext for this to happen.
I'd appreciate any advice you might have.
thanks in advance
