IMAP keeps failing
Hello all, i am new to server managment but i am trying to figure it all out. I have a problem with IMAP server. It keeps failing. I have found a temporary solution to force reinstall whm and then the problem goes away for a week or so. But then imap starts failing again. This is the output of the emails i am receiving.
I have tried to increase the authentication daemons but the problem is not fixed. I have also setup CPHULK with low limits. Do you know how to solve this?
TCP Transaction Log:
<< * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE NAMESPACE LITERAL+ STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot ready.
>> A001 LOGIN __cpanel__service__auth__imap__tyumqcpavsp2UCml T5Vu2d5YTkiXRiCZ
<< A001 NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed.
imap: ** [A001 NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed. != A001 OK]

Greetings, Looking at the error message, it could be related to a number of things. If restarting the service is not resolving the issue, then it may likely be a configuration matter. That session is specifically what chkservd is using to test the daemon. You may want to check the service check configuration for dovecot. cPanel ID 0 -

I think i had done something stupid. I had blocked all ips from the country that my server is located. Now it seems that the problem is fixed.0 -
I'm glad you were able to find a good resolution to this! 0
