Hi,

	I'm running 5.4, freshly installed.  I installed dovecot for IMAP and I
want to be able to access it remotely using a port forward in ssh.

	The problem I have is that whenever I access my mailbox via IMAP,
trough the ssh tunnel, I can't access the resource.  It says: connexion
refused.  From my internal network, IMAP access works fine.

	I tried port-forwarding HTTP instead.  The situation is even worse
there: it freezes my ssh session.

	I looked in the various logs and didn't find anything.  I uncommented
the line

AllowTcpForwarding yes

in sshd_config, and restarted sshd, but nothing changed.

	Any ideas?

Regards,
-- 
Ugo
