My guess is that your "real" IP name is commons...charter-stl.com, and the
system in saying, "Hey, you haven't allowed yourself access to your server!".
 Try

nslookup commons10k1.mo24.107.34.126.charter-stl.com

and see if it matches 24.107.34.126.

If so, change this line:
imapd: 192.168.*, 127.0.0.1, bruneworld.com

to this:
imapd: 192.168.*, 127.0.0.1, bruneworld.com,
commons10k1.mo24.107.34.126.charter-stl.com
