hi nina, what is your authentication method within uw-imap from the source you installed the RPM? could you please post your .conf-file? also worthy would be a snip from your logfile. (just in case the SSL-workaround did not get it...) and try also testing access to your server locally on this machine with: telnet localhost imap you should get reply from your mailserver now....if this is so, try: aa01 login username "password" -> where username is your username and password has to be written between the "". you should get someting like: aa01 login successful, it could now be your firewall or an ACL..if you don't get it, you will find with tail -n10 /var/log/maillog and tail -n10 /var/log/messages the last 10 lines, which should contain the error-message.
