Hi 

New user to imap , i have installed imap on a basic postfix flat file
mailer.

Imapd and pop3d is running through xinetd.

When trying to access the mailbox the logs show the following errors fir
imap and pop3:

Aug  4 03:26:48 xmstest ipop3d[4469]: pop3 service init from 127.0.0.1
Aug  4 03:26:48 xmstest ipop3d[4469]: Logout user=??? host=xmstest.co.za
[127.0.0.1]
Aug  4 03:26:57 xmstest imapd[4470]: imap service init from 127.0.0.1
Aug  4 03:27:00 xmstest imapd[4470]: Command stream end of file, while
reading line user=test host=xmstest.co.za [127.0.0.1]

The box is running suse 9.3 Server.
Also unable to telnet to port 143 or 110 and xinetd is running with imap
and pop3 enabled.

Can anybody help me with these errors.

What does your xinet.conf look like for the IMAP (and POP) entries:

I have:
(from xinetd.conf)
defaults
{
        log_type        = SYSLOG daemon info
        log_on_success  = HOST EXIT DURATION
        log_on_failure  = HOST ATTEMPT
        bind            = imap-server.tlinx.org
}
        enabled         = imaps
        enabled         = imap
service imaps
{
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/sbin/imapds
}

service imap
{
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        flags           = NOLIBWRAP
        server          = /usr/sbin/imapd
}
----------

(note, /usr/sbin/imapds is a softlink to imapd).
Hope this helps...
Linda
