The Postfix/Cyrus combination seemed to be a no go for me (search of the Cyrus archives didn't reveal anything useful pertaining to the error I was getting). So I thought I would try Sendmail. Installed it, and am able to SEND mail (from the server) to external mailboxes. I next installed QPopper for the POP3 interface. It doesn't appear to need any special configuration (Suse handles the basics for you), and I can open port 110 (even if the server closes it right away - the resulting messges look normal). However, when I try to hook up KMail to it, or Outlook from my Windows workstation, I get errors. Yet I can see in the /etc/mail folder that there IS mail waiting for me.
I've looked for details on this but I think I'm too tired and frustrated right now to do a proper search and understand the results. Anyone deal with this before? I'm close to dropping linux off my server, and reinstalling a windows platform - I KNOW I can have an email server in a couple of hours that way. It would beat the two+ days I've spent trying to get a Linux email server running. Maybe I'm just not bright enough for this task.... Or, the learning curve is MUCH MUCH steeper than I anticipated..... Anyways, I'm done venting. My appologies for it. But I would appreciate any tips for sendmail/qpopper. Thanks in advance. I'm digging deeper through the config files now.... <sighs> Shawn (PS. I looked a Kroupware and Citadel. Kroupware isn't far enough along for my taste yet. Citadel is a drastic shift in the approach I've elected to take (postfix/cyrus, or sendmail/pop3), but I haven't ruled it out yet).
