I don't have the file your log describes. I don't think its part of courier.
At least not if you installed it from the ports. Or, maybe its only written
temporarily if someone is using imap via ssl (my mail server isn't active
enough on imap-ssl to watch for that).

It looks like maybe you have the File Access Monitor installed
(/usr/ports/devel/fam)... I know nothing about it, but its likely something
misconfigured on it that isn't allowing courier to write the file or
something.
