The Courier-IMAP package does not have any configuration file called 
"authdaemon.rc".  Where did it come from?

>>cat /usr/lib/courier-imap/1.3.10/etc/imapd |grep auth
> AUTHMODULES="authpam"
> AUTHMODULES_ORIG="authpam"

These two should be authdaemon.

> # authdaemon replaced by authpam - RoN 6.9.01 01:40h

Who told you to do that?

>>./authtest -m authpam ronny
> Authentication FAILED!

Correct, but not how you think it was compiled.  See INSTALL.

That's right, there is no authpam.  See the description of the authdaemon 
module, in INSTALL, for the explanation.
