Response to: Panther = IMAP Broken
I think 10.3 has PAM (Plugable Authenticator Module) so I am going to try compiling like so: make osx PASSWDTYPE=pam SSLTYPE=unix --or-- make osx PASSWDTYPE=pmb SSLTYPE=unix Any advice would be useful

  The latest development tar ball for UW-IMAP includes changes that support MacOS X 10.3 Panther.
  
  Get:
  ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap-2003.DEV.tar.Z
  
  Compile with (OpenSSL must have been installed):
  make oxp
  
  (without SSL support: make oxp SSLTYPE=none)
  
  Also, you need "imap" in /etc/pam.d/, so;
  
  cd /etc/pam.d
  sudo cp login imap

  I was the original poster indicating that this was broken. I tried your solution -- worked like a charm. Thanks a ton!

  I hate having to reply to my own message, but it's not working for some reason. In Mail.app, it appears to check it and log in just fine. However, I can't seem to send e-mail to the LDAP server. It could be something entirely unrelated. Checking my LDAP account seems to go off without a hitch. It just doesn't seem to receive it. Oh, and when I send e-mail, it doesn't bounce back -- very weird.

  There has been two solutions posted on the Apple Discussion board (not in the 10.3 section but in 10.2 Jaguar section however).
  
  Please see:

  PAM method works by:
  
  Changing imap-2002e/src/osdep/unix/Makefile as below, adding CHECKPW=pam, and also adding -lpam:
  
  osx: # Mac OS X
  $(BUILD) `$(CAT) SPECIALS` OS=$@ \
  CHECKPW=pam CRXTYPE=nfs \
  SPOOLDIR=/var/spool MAILSPOOL=/var/mail \
  BASECFLAGS="-g -O" \
  EXTRALDFLAGS="-lpam"
  
  GCC will complain that security/pam_appl.h cannot
  be found. You can modify and ifdef in the source for
  MacOS X 10.3, but if you want a quick and dirty fix,
  you can just copy /usr/include/pam directory to
  /usr/include/security.
  
  This produced a imapd binary without any compile errors when SSL is not included.
  
  
  Also copy existing /etc/pam.d/login into imap:
  cd /etc/pam.d
  cp login imap
  
  I initially had confusing situations of the above working and not working, but it has been working at least for one day after the change.
  
  UW-IMAP people including Mr. Mark Crispin are aware of the IMAP on Panther situation, though he does not use Apple. The above changes were suggested by Mark.
