Mailserver problems.
I seem to be having some troubles with my mailserver. Sendmail is working properly as far as I can tell, and so is IMAP and POP3, but whenever I try to log in via IMAP or POP3 I get an incorrect password error even though Iam using the proper password. Ive even tried telnet which yields this:
[dj@paq dj]$ telnet 192.168.1.158 110
Trying 192.168.1.158...
Connected to 192.168.1.158 (192.168.1.158).
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK kay.black-heart.net Cyrus POP3 v2.2.3-Red Hat 2.2.3-11 server ready <230396641.1087798049@kay.black-heart.net>
USER dj
+OK Name is a valid mailbox
PASS ******
-ERR [AUTH] Invalid login
I know I am using the right password as the password works for ssh and other services, but the mail daemons are not accepting them, Am I missing something?

imapproxyd
IMAPPROXYD(8) IMAP proxy daemon IMAPPROXYD(8)
NAME
imapproxyd - IMAP proxy daemon
SYNOPSIS
imapproxyd [ -f <config file name> ] [ -p <pidfile name> ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the imapproxyd command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
UP-ImapProxy proxies IMAP transactions between an IMAP client and an IMAP server. The general idea is that the client should never know
that it is not talking to the real IMAP server, but ImapProxy caches server connections.
ImapProxy was written to compensate for webmail clients that are unable to maintain persistent connections to an IMAP server. Most webmail
clients need to log in to an IMAP server for nearly every single transaction; This behaviour can cause tragic performance problems on the
IMAP server. ImapProxy tries to deal with this problem by leaving server connections open for a short time after a webmail client logs
out. When the webmail client connects again, ImapProxy will determine if there is a cached connection available and reuse it if possible.
FILES
By default, UP-ImapProxy reads /etc/imapproxy.conf on startup. This can be changed by using the -f option
Unless foreground_mode has been enabled, UP-ImapProxy will write its PID to to a PID-file. It defaults to /var/run/imapproxy.pid, but can
be overridden with the -p option
