Troubleshooting IMAP Connectivity: Unable to authenticate to IMAP server. IMAP command failed: Login failed.



The first step is to check if the Courier IMAP server is accepting connections. Open a terminal window and type:
telnet hostname 143
Replace hostname with the IMAP server's DNS name. This expected results would look like this:
$ telnet imap.example.com 143
If you get the error "no login failed" then you need to check the following;

1. Make sure IMAP Service is running.
2. You should make sure that you are using the correct password and that the mail username is in the format:
3. Make sure there is correct name in your exchange server certificate.

Please check your certificate settings:

Get-ExchangeCertificate | fl

I noticed that the InternalConnectionSettings is pointed to Test2.contoso.com but the X509CertificateName is using Remote.domain.com. If there is a certificate with Test2.contoso.com, please change the X509CertificateName to it to have a try:

Set-IMAPSettings -Identity Test2\1  -X509CertificateName Test2.contoso.com

Then restart Microsoft Exchange IMAP service in Exchange server.

How to Configure ActiveSync Virtual Directories in coexistence between exchange 2007 and 2013, when you have different external and internal namespaces

In coexistence environment (exchange 2007-2013), we could set Exchange 2013 ActiveSync External URL to mail.yourexternaldomain.com and set Internal URL to mail.yourinternaldomain.com . And set Exchange 2007 Internal URL to  mail.yourinternaldomain.com  and set External URL to Null .  We could run the following commands. Set-ActiveSyncVirtualDirectory -Identity "<CAS2013>\Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync (Default Web Site)" -ExternalUrl "https:// mail.yourexternaldomain.com /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync"    –InternalURL “https:// mail.yourinternaldomain.com /Microsoft-Server ActiveSync” Set-ActiveSyncVirtualDirectory -Identity "<CAS2007>\Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync (Default Web Site)" -ExternalUrl $Null    –InternalURL “https:// mail.yourinternaldomain.com  /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync”
