    I installed the courier imap server (including ssl) on my home gateway
    to handle incoming mail.
    The problem is that when I try to connect to it I keep getting a reply
    that I can't authenticate with the server.
    When first configuring the account to connect using ssl I get a message
    that there is a problem with the certificate but again authentication
    fails afterwords.
    Also the setup file says that courier only handles maildirs. I currently
    have exim installed for smtp. I uncommented the option for maildirs in
    the config file and converted the mbox into a maildir with the same name
    in the same location. Is that the right thing to do?

    Thanx
