    During the installation of Roundcube, I encountered this error while trying to log in:

    Connecting to ssl://localhost:993...
    IMAP connect:  NOT OK(Authentication for name failed (LOGIN): "a001 NO Login failed.")

    In the mail.log I get the following error messages:

    It looks like Roundcube is trying to access a database called maildir in /usr/local/virtual. Nothing exists in this location yet, even though I have followed the tutorial on this site from the start. When I installed Roundcube, I created a databased called roundcubemail and added in the tables from the included template. I thought that the users would be in this db, because my user for Postfix Admin is in the postfix db, not in the /usr/local/virtual directory. I think the problem is that I don't know how to create a user and if I did, I don't know where to create it.

    Can anyone see what I'm missing?

    Cheers,
    David

    David, you should use username@example.com instead of just username.
