I have a few more questions that may help, I hope you don't mind me asking.
I'm trying to use the ./Maildir/ format, with checkpassword. Check password
appears to be working, as I'm not getting the "auth failed" message anymore,
now I'm getting the "-ERR this users has no $HOME/Maildir" error. Here's a
line from the poppasswd file, which checkpassword is setup to read:
testid:DmIMm9e5Hc8ic:popuser:/var/qmail/popboxes/domain-com/joe
And a line from my /var/qmail/users/assign file:
=domain-com-joe:popuser:888:231:/var/qmail/popboxes/domain-com/joe:::
I've executed the qmail-newu and typed "maildirmake Maildir" from
/var/qmail/popboxes/domain-com/joe as user "popuser", so the three folders
that maildirmake creates are in there, and have the correct permissions.
1.) I've seen the first part of the inted.conf line written both ways,
starting with "pop3" and "pop-3". I don't know which one is right, or if I
need both, any idea? Here's what I have: (I put in both just in case):
pop-2 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd ipop2d
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup
steph.newhope.com /usr/local/sbin/checklocalpwd /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir
pop-3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup
steph.newhope.com /usr/local/sbin/checklocalpwd /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir
imap stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd imapd #
smtp stream tcp nowait qmaild /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env tcp-env
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtp
2.) I don't know what the value of /etc/login.defs is. Here's what I have:
# *REQUIRED*
# Directory where mailboxes reside, _or_ name of file, relative to the
# home directory. If you _do_ define both, MAIL_DIR takes precedence.
# QMAIL_DIR is for Qmail
#
QMAIL_DIR Maildir
#MAIL_DIR /var/spool/mail
#MAIL_FILE .mail
Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it!
