IMAP and IMAP-SSL login problems

After the Connection line, you should be seeing lines like 

  Dec 22 17:24:15 zim imapd: LOGIN, user=listone at deathbeforedecaf.net, ip=[203.38.184.164]
  Dec 22 17:24:15 zim imapd: LOGOUT, user=listone at deathbeforedecaf.net, ip=[203.38.184.164], headers=0, body=0


If the login fails, you should see something like

  Dec 22 17:27:02 zim imapd: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[203.38.184.164]


If you don't get either, this suggests that your IMAP client is not attempting 
to authenticate. Perhaps it only attempts to do so in SSL mode?
