In this case port 993 for imaps and port 143 for imap4s. This could mean that you don't have permision to bind to the ports - you need to be root to bind to ports < 1024. But this seems unlikely as can successfully start the pop3 and pop3s daemons which also bind to ports < 1024. So it seems that the likely problem is that you already have some other daemon bound to ports 993 and 143. Most likely some other IMAP daemon. You should be able to verify this by looking at the output of: netstat --inet -ln Look for tcp lines that include :143 and :993 And if you have fuser installed, you should be able to determine which daemon it is by running the following commands as root: fuser -v -n tcp 993; fuser -v -n tcp 143 You can also search for the process in question using lsof. -- Simon Horman VA Linux Systems Japan K.K., Sydney, Australia Satellite Office H: www.vergenet.net/~horms/ W: www.valinux.co.jp/en
