This looks as a correct IMAP login procedure. No error message at all.
The only curiosity is see is that your localhost 127.0.0.1 is called
marte.biciclete.ro. This is not correct and probably the reason for any
problem. So you /etc/hosts file should look like this:

127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost
192.168.0.1             marte.biciclete.ro   marte

To delete the localhost line will end up in many network problems.
