I have done the following:


$ /var/qmail/bin/maildirmake $HOME/Maildir
$ echo ./Maildir/ > ~/.qmail


as the user who is the owner of the maildir.  Then from the command line
entered the following to start the pop3d


tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.mydomain.com \
        /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d maildir 2>&1 | \
        /var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &



After all the above was done I tried connecting via a pop client and I get
the message:


The server could not be found (Account: 'mail.mydomain.com', Error number
0x800ccc0d.


By the way I am using Outlook 98 as my mail client.  I realise this is a
very newbie type question but I am very new to this.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.


Regards

Vivian
