We are suffering from a big and strange problem!
We just migrated one of our servers from cpanel to directadmin and everything is working fine except webmails.
We migrated emails manually by moving /home/username/mail/domain.com/emailuser/ to /home/username/imap/domain.com/emailuser/Maildir/ .
Then chowned the moved data like this:
Code:
chown -R username:mail /home/username/imap/domain.com/emailuser/Maildir/*

But no emails will be listed in roundcube. Roundcube get stuck in "Refreshing..." state and then shows a red error box saying "an email occured: Connection Error (Failed to reach the server)!"

This is odd! We always do the same to migrate emails from cpanel to directadmin and never faced such issue before.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?
We are facing same issue for other emails as well. so it's obvious that we are missing some configuration here.
 
Resolved!
dovecot was causing the issue. It was crashing frequently. I fixed it and everything is working like a charm now!
