[imp] Re: auth with mysql

[Hans Novak]

Hi,

the must be a disaccord.
My postfix/courier imap with mysql storage works great for any clients 
(like mozilla/outlook/...)
The problem is, that horde/imp is trying to use the database horde (like 
described in his config)
with a TABEL who does not exist in this database.
The tyble exist in the postfix database in mysql. I have try a symlink 
between the tables, but this is not working too.

In the mysql.log, horde/imp show the following:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
050324 15:11:33     519 Connect     horde at localhost on
                    519 Init DB     horde
                      6 Query       SELECT username, password, "", 
'1001', '1001', '/usr/local/virtual', maildir, quota, name, "" FROM 
mailbox WHERE username = "xxxxxx"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This sql statement looks like the one from postfix. Thats the reason, 
why i'm asking about postfix auth and so on.
What is the different between "horde" or "imp" login (for the server).
I can only login with the conf.php.dist (as conf.php) with no 
authentification.
