MailAdmin 1.5.1

Tips

I ran into a few "gotchas" configuring MailAdmin. Here are some notes that might help you, if you're having problems.

syslog.conf - added a line -

local6.info -/var/log/imapd.log

permissions

had a problem created by not having permissions for mailadmin directory set to User and Group that the webserver is running as

saslpasswd

make sure you check the realm for users you want to authenticate. The output of sasldblistusers will show the user realm and authentication mechanism. If there is a mismatch between he realm from which the user is authenticating and the realm in sasldb, the user may not be able to authenticate.

/usr/sbin/saslpasswd

chmod +s /usr/sbin/saslpasswd

Perl

I had problems related to Red Hat's installation of perl. To resolve the prolbem, I removed all the perl modules (not mod_perl) and installed from source. YMMV
