UW-IMAP SSL vs. unsecured access – log entry question

[jweinberger]

Hi:

I”m having some odd issues with my UW-IMAP server on Mac OS/X 10.4.8 (PPC).

When I log in using SSL I see an entry in the log like this:

Mar 2 20:50:34 server imapd[10252]: Login user=xxxx host=example.tld [ipaddress]

But when I log in over a clear connection, I get this:

Mar 2 18:42:59 server imapd[9227]: Authenticated user=xxxx host=example.tld [ipaddress]

(sorry user and host names deleted….)

Can anyone tell me what the difference is, and why I am seeing “Authenticated” on clear connections but “Login” on SSL?

Thank you very much for anyhelp you can offer!!

Well, I discovered this when I wa having some mailbox locking issues, but those are solved now.

What I am asking really is what is the difference between “Login” and “Authenticated”

Thanks!

That seems like a possibility – I”m wondering that myself.

Do you know of any place that might be documented or anyone who might know?

Thanks!
