Hello Everyone,
I had qmail installed and working just fine on my
machines using a dialup connection (ppp). I have
a "public" machine that the MX records point to.
That machine treats my mail as a virtual domain,
and stuffs all mail for a given domain to a specific
user's mailbox. I download periodically from it
to the server at my house using maildir2smtp.
That part appears to work. I'm using Netscape's
Communicator on my Win95 box to download the mail
from the local server to read it. That was working
fine also.
Then I switched to a cable modem setup, with
Roadrunner. After finally getting everything
squared away, the mail is being delivered to
my local Maildir without problem. And I can
read it from the local server using Mutt (That's
how I'm writing this message).
BUT, when I try to have my workstation get the
mail using POP via Netscape, it's saying that:
"The mail server responded:
This user has no $HOME/Maildir
Please enter a new password"
Any suggestions what might be wrong. As far as
I know, I've not changed anything to do with
qmail specifically, just the PPP vs IP Masq
setup. Any ideas on how to debug?
Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if
you can.
Thanks.
This just in... restarting qmail-pop3d seems to fix the
problem. This may be related to my having to manually
edit resolv.conf after startup to add my local
domain and dns.
