Hi,

I used the qmailrocks qmail-1.03 package and the associated patches to accomplish my goal. however, i am facing 2 issues currently....

1. I am not able to log in to either the smtp or pop3 server using telnet...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# telnet localhost 110
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-ERR usage: popup hostname subprogram
Connection closed by foreign host.

I would like to add that due to differences in contents of files /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run and /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run, I had trimmed the last line of both these files to remove any references to vchkpw and now the last lines of the files are as follows :

last line of /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run is -
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd mailserver.mydomain.com 2>&1

last line of /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run is -
exec tcpserver -H -R -v -c100 0 110 qmail-popup \
mailserver.mydomain.com 2>&1

I guess I might have committed some error with the above file contents...pls correct me wherever possible

2. When I send a mail to a user (lets say 'amit'), qmail delivers it in mbox format to /home/amit/Maildir. However, I want qmail to deliver mails in MAILDIR format to /var/qmail/maildirs/amit instead

I have correctly followed the following steps during qmail setup -
(a)uncommented MDIRMAKE=-DAUTOMAILDIRMAKE in the qmail Makefile
(b) echo ./Maildir > /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery
(c) echo /var/qmail/maildirs > /var/qmail/control/ldapmessagestore

(Is Maildir delivery a feature of Courier-IMAP ?.....But then I also have courier-imap installed and running. and I have set /var/qmail/maildirs as the default delivery directory for courier imap too!)

How do I make qmail deliver messages to /var/qmail/maildirs/amit in Maildir format ? Pls help me out here as I didnt find a solution to these even after hours of googling...

Thanks

Amit
