I saw in the archives that others where having this same problem. Was there a solution posted?
Using Roundcube 20051021 build, dovecot .99 I'm able to telnet into dovecot and login without issue.
When I attempt to login through RoundCube I get:
Login Failed
LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED NAMESPACE AUTH=PLAIN cp01 OK Capability completed. Tried PLAIN: Resource id #25
My dovecot log shows a successful login when I am receiving this error from RoundCube. On the other hand, this is a brand new DoveCot install and I have never used IMAP with my mail server. I wonder if the other people who were receiving this error where able to resolve it?
Any help is appreciated. Thank you! Randy
I am using dovecot 0.99.14-1 (Debian sarge). I did not run into similar errors. Are you using SSL? WHat login mechanism are you using? Please post some more information about your system and configuration.

Thank you for the response.
Turns out that the "auto_create_user" config option doesn't really mean what I thought it meant. I suppose there's a certain argument to be had to say that the config file description for this parameter isn't quite clear, but I'm happy to admit that I'm not clever enough for this.
In any event, if one sets the auto_create_user parameter to "false", which is what I did when I was first configuring RoundCube, that means that RoundCube will not auto create users in the RoundCube DATABASE. I had assumed this meant something like, "Gee, if someone tries to login with a completely random user id and password, go ahead and let them in! This is the people's e-mail server, man! Anyone can use it!"
Of course, that did seem a little strange to me at the time, so I set this value to "FALSE" meaning, "I only want the users that are already authorized in my IMAP server to be able to log in."
So, my confusion. Set the auto_create_user to TRUE and now everything is working great.
Thank you!
