Only ONE E-Mail Working (?)

I'm having a weird issue with our installation of Roundcube, maybe related to doing the recent update (maybe not).

Only ONE of the email addresses on our web hosting seems to work with our custom Roundcube installation, even though I've checked others using the webmail service on hosting account (also Roundcube, others like Squirrel available too) and they're ALL okay there.

I also tried resetting password for the accounts that aren't working, to be sure I was entering a correct password, but that didn't help.

The ONLY email address that I can get into using our Roundcube is my main one, "admin"... but all others result in "Login Failed" message.

What could be going on in our setup to cause something like this??

Whoops... never mind, I figured it out.

Installing the new version I mistakenly set the auto_create_user value to false, where before it was TRUE:

// automatically create a new Roundcube user when log-in the first time.
// a new user will be created once the IMAP login succeeds.
// set to false if only registered users can use this service
$rcmail_config['auto_create_user'] = true;

This meant only the existing "working account" (already in the database I guess) would log in, and nobody else even IF they were a "valid" email account on our website.

So, my bad... LOL.  Hope this post helps somebody in the future after they've made the same dumb mistake :)
