I use this combination and had some minor problems setting it up,
however I used courier sources and built the whole thing from scratch
rather than use RPM or DEB packages.

The first thing I did was to turn on logging in MySQL so that it logged
the queries being made. Once this happened and I could understand what
Courier was trying to do.
