Mailed and posted 
I've just upgraded from 3.4-S to 4.0-S, and cannot connect to IMAP
server on this box anymore. ;^( I think this is authentication
related, as I am seeing this kind of messages in /var/log/maillog:

,----[ /var/log/maillog ]
| Apr 19 12:05:40 soup imapd[278]: [dlerror: /usr/lib/libutil.so.3: \
|                  Undefined symbol "freeaddrinfo"]
| Apr 19 12:05:40 soup imapd[278]: adding faulty module: \
|                  /usr/lib/pam_unix.so
| Apr 19 12:05:40 soup imapd[278]: Login failure user=antipode \
|                  host=tea.thpoon.com [192.168.1.2]
`----

My mail reader shows the following in its logs:
,----[ *imap-log* ]
| * OK soup.thpoon.com IMAP4rev1 v12.264 server ready
| 5 LOGIN "antipode" "********"
| 5 NO LOGIN failed
`---- 

IMAP used to work just fine before the upgrade. Also, all other
services (telnet, ssh, ftp etc.) authenticate properly under 4.0. It's
just the IMAP. 8-/

This is what I have in /etc/pam.conf:
,----[ /etc/pam.conf ]
| # [...]
| 
| # Mail services
| imap   auth    required        pam_unix.so   try_first_pass
| pop3   auth    required        pam_unix.so   try_first_pass
| 
| # [...]
| 
| # If we don't match anything else, default to using getpwnam().
| other   auth    required        pam_unix.so  try_first_pass
| other   account required        pam_unix.so  try_first_pass
`----
Commenting `imap' out didn't help either.

Thanks for any input!

p.s. I'm sorry for crossposting this, but I'm quite desperate now, not
being able to read my mail. I have procmail splitting messages into
multiple mailboxes, and I have to telnet and do "mutt -f mailbox" on
each of them. 8-/

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.
