Error Horde :: code: 535, response: Incorrect authentication data

Error while sending mail through Horde.

There was an error sending your message: authentication failure [SMTP: Invalid response code received from server (code: 535, response: Incorrect authentication data)]

I am using cPanel for this server and Horde as the email interface and found that I was getting error while sending mail from an email account. On investigation, I have found that the ownership of etc/ was incorrect; I correct it and the error was fixed.

Correct ownerships for the 'etc' and 'mail' folders are as below:

etc (all files and sub-folders):
User: Actual username
Group: mail

command to fix the ownership:

#  chown username.mail etc/ -R

(Here username is the actual domain username)

mail (all files and sub-folders):
User: Actual username
Group: Actual username

command to fix the ownership:

#  chown username.username mail/ -R

(Here username is the actual domain username)

How to check the version of Horde

If you have ‘root’ SSH access to the server then, simply open the file

# /var/cpanel/horde/version

using your favorite editor and you’ll be able to see the current Horde version.

Horde login failed on linux plesk

while logging to webmail got an error “Horde login failed” , had tried to reset the password of the email address but that did not fix the issue. After further investigating what I found is that I was unable to telnet the IMAP port – the command used for this is:

root# telnet localhost 143

Then, checked with ifconfig and got the output:

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4
inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128

The line “inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000” was missing, to get this fixed I executed the below command:

root# ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0

Then, I have tried to login using Horde and it worked perfectly fine.

Horde broken or not working correctly on cPanel

Simple, short & sweet post, this should easily fix any problems you’re having

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/update-horde --force

Also, this might be useful to run hourly, I leave this on our servers “just in case”.

(mysqlcheck --auto-repair eximstats ; mysqlcheck --auto-repair horde) >/dev/null 2>/dev/null

How To Reinstall Horde

To reinstall Horde, preserving the existing database, you can use the following:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/update-horde --force
