Not sure if anyone got this, but as an update I re-created the Maildir's
for all of my users.  I think I had originally done "maildirmake
~/Maildir" which might have been the problem... did it this time as
"maildirmake $HOME/Maildir" and now when I connect with fetchmail it tells
me it is unable to scan $HOME/Maildir as opposed to the other error
message.  One step in the right direction, I think, but now I'm really
stumped.  Why would it be unable to scan?

I also edited /var/qmail/rc and changed ./Mailbox to ./Maildir/ but that
doesn't seem to have made a difference as far as the POP3 daemon is
concerned.

Help!

Subject: problems with qmail-pop3d

I have a few problems with qmail-pop3d that I'm not sure how to solve.  I
followed the instructions to the letter, and when I start it with
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3d.init it starts but says "hard error" before
it starts.  Any idea what this might be?

Also, I switched to using maildir and followed those instructions
properly, but when I use fetchmail to attempt to retrieve those messages I
get a "user doesn't have a $HOME/Maildir" error and no mail is
retrieved.  There is a ~/Maildir directory, I ran maildirmake and added
"./Maildir/" to the ~/.qmail file.  Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you in advance.
