[imp] Login Failed

Keep in mind that a database (like Mysql) is not needed to login to imp,
it's only used to store user preferences.

So my idea is that your problem lies elsewhere.

Try connecting with a regular email imap client (eg: outlook express on
windows or kmail on linux). If that works, than snif your network traffic (I
assume your not on SSL) from the webserver to the mail server, you'll see
the reason for the logo failure in the imap packets.

Dear Tien-Chih,
If you use RPM built-in distro, you will find out php-mysql.xxx.rpm in
your distro-CD. And if you build you php by tarball ,you must have
--with-mysql or something like that, you see detail in the docs from
PHP tarball.
