no login, no nothing in the logs

Hello!

I seem to have a weird problem, since google didn't find anything that could 
relate to my situation. 

To give you a clear idea of my sistem, I installed qmail etc following this 
guide:

http://dev.gentoo.org/~hollow/qmail-howto.xml

and virtual domains send and receive mail pretty normally. Everything works, 
well, everything but... qmailadmin. And it's a problem, since we need an easy 
interface to admin mailing-lists pretty badly.

I can reach the page all right, it's on https admin domain, with an .htaccess 
(hopefully) blocking spiders and scanners. But that's where my trip ends. No 
way to login. And nothing at all in any log I could think of (auth.log, 
dovecot.log, /var/log/qmail/*, /var/log/apache2/* you name it).

It's as if it didn't even try... but it does, since I get a "no such user" 
answer (at least I suppose that's the english version, as apache sends me the 
russian version, which reads "Неверное имя регистрации"). This happens with 
all the domains I have.

I DID check that the domain is in strings /var/qmail/users/cdb (yes it IS 
there and it must be, since mail works).

Just in case, I decided to make sure that the postmaster account is alive and 
well. I added it in my Kmail and activated the highest level of logging 
verbosity

       END LOG

I also sent mail to the account and I came just fine. So this is not about 
passwords or bad accounts... where do I look next? Apache seems like the next 
suspect...

in vhosts.d what I have is:
=====================================
NameVirtualHost **.**.**.**:443
<VirtualHost **.**.**.**:443>
        ServerAdmin [email protected]
        ServerName admin.myvirtdomain.org

        <Directory />
                Allow from All
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride All
        </Directory>

        ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/
        <Directory "/var/www/localhost/cgi-bin">
           Order allow,deny
           Allow from all
           AllowOverride All
           Options ExecCGI
           AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/myvirtdomain/admin/error.log

        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
        # alert, emerg.
        LogLevel warn

        CustomLog /var/log/apache2/myvirtdomain/admin/access.log combined
        ServerSignature On
</VirtualHost>
==========================================
turning loglevel to debug doesn't add anything to the process. What I don't 
seem to understand is why I don't see a failed IMAP login in the dovecot 
log...
