Hm, I can't try that by hand, because in fact I only offer POP3s via Port 995 to the world: mail:~# grep -i ^protocols /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf protocols = pop3s imap imaps IMAP on port 143 is neccessary to allow access to squirrelmail, and is hidden by the packet filter from the world. > No. But what do you have in pop3_uidl_format? > > If POP3 UIDLs differ, I think it's unlikely the problem is with Dovecot > itself (but instead with some anti-virus/firewall/whatever in the > middle). There is no Firewall or Antivirus-Code in the middle, or to be more precise: I have tried to download from a linux box, where no firewall and no virus killer is running on. The result is the same, as if I download it from a Windows XP box, where firewall and virus killer is running. mail:~# grep uidl /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf #pop3_reuse_xuidl = no pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv Is that OK?
