Problems setting up and properly compiling imap-uw.

Looking for some help in this rather baffling issue.  I'm trying to get a new mail server setup with webmail capabilities (via squirrelmail) and I'm hitting a little snag. Squirrelmail says that the imap server won't accept plain text passwords, yet I compiled from source for plaintext using "make -E WITHOUT_SSL" and I also tried "make -E WITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT". Neither worked. Squirrelmail still complains saying that the imap server doesn't allow plaintext passwords.

Any idea what I can do to fix this? Is it a config file I have to change or something? I don't want nor need to do ssl for logins as this will be located on a secure lan, so I'd like to avoid all the crazy stuff that comes with doing an SSL setup. Any help is appreciated.
