   <description>Hi,

I try to use dovecot authentication with Horde on  a freebsd server, but it fails to open imp interface unless the credential and the imap auth is correct.In my /tmp/horde.log file I have the next two lines:



Mar 05 22:28:58 HORDE [warning] [imp] Impossible de terminer la requÃªte. Raison Ã©voquÃ©eÂ : Authentication failed.: NO [pid 86963 on line 382 of &quot;/usr/local/www/horde-webmail-1.2.2/imp/lib/IMAP/Client.php&quot;]

Mar 05 22:28:58 HORDE [notice] [imp] Login success for srichaud@srdi.fr [88.180.176.145] to {localhost:143 [imap/notls]} [pid 86963 on line 304 of &quot;/usr/local/www/horde-webmail-1.2.2/imp/lib/Session.php&quot;]



My password are stored MD5 encrypted in a mysql database.I think I need to use PLAIN-MD5 mechanism method in horde, is it possible?or is my problem a really horde issue</description>

&gt; to your problem?



The main issue I encounter, is I cannot pass imp login unless my credential are valid and the authentication is succesfully made by dovecot.



I am sure my credential are good because if I send bad password I get the horde error message...



This is the /tmp/horde.log:

Mar 06 10:21:00 HORDE [warning] [imp] Impossible de terminer la requête. Raison évoquées : Authentication failed.: NO [pid 44051 on line 382 of &quot;/usr/local/www/horde-webmail-1.2.2/imp/lib/IMAP/Client.php&quot;]

Mar 06 10:21:00 HORDE [notice] [imp] Login success for lpouillon@srdi.fr [83.145.72.40] to {localhost:143 [imap/notls]} [pid 44051 on line 304 of &quot;/usr/local/www/horde-webmail-1.2.2/imp/lib/Session.php&quot;]



So my questions are, is it an horde bug or is a personnal misconfiguration?

Unless I&#039;m misreading what you wrote, your basically saying you can&#039;t login unless your login is correct? That&#039;s kinda the idea...



...or are you saying that you are using some *other* method of authentication to login to Horde, but when you try to view your email, you are asked for your login/password again?  If that&#039;s the case, it&#039;s a configuration issue, and you should read the documents and/or ask for help on the mailing list.
