Hi,
this was the "golden Tip" it works. Thank you very very much. Resolution: function authenticate( $username, $password ) { return imap_open("{10.131.XX.XX/POP3:110}", $username, $password ); }
changed to: function authenticate( $username, $password ) { return imap_open("{10.131.XX.XX/POP3:110}", $_REQUEST['wpName'], $password ); }
Thanks again.....
Looking through the code, it looks like the username is changed before it ever gets sent to the authentication plugin, so what I offered won't help after all. You can use $_REQUEST['wpName'] in the authenticate method. It is raw input from the user, so definitely sanitize it if you need to.
V/r,
