Imap problems after upgrade under debian

From Wickle Wiki

I recently update the debian distribution to testing from stable , i made it with the instructions at the debian page

them a lot of thigs does not work, like uw-imap ... The error was the next :

home:/home:/etc# telnet localhost 143
Connected to home.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 X-NETSCAPE LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED]
home IMAP4rev1 2003.337 at Sat, 20 Mar 2004 06:57:18 +0000 (UTC)
a login myusername mypassword
a NO LOGIN failed
a logout

To fix this problem you must enable plaintext auth, edit the file :/etc/c-client.cf and put the next (the first line too):

I accept the risk
set disable-plaintext nil

Them, the problem is fixed :

home:/etc# telnet localhost 143
Connected to home.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 X-NETSCAPE LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS AUTH=LOGIN]
home IMAP4rev1 2003.337 at Sat, 20 Mar 2004 06:57:18 +0000 (UTC)
a login myusername mypassword
a OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 X-NETSCAPE IDLE NAMESPACE MAILBOX-REFERRALS
BINARY SCAN SORT THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT MULTIAPPEND]
User myusername authenticated

Although a better solution is to enable SSL IMAP to enhance security ...

This will be done configuring uw-imap to start imaps at port 993 dpkg-reconfigure uw-imapd

Them at the email client select : Use secure Conncetion (SSL)
