Im having a huge amount of trouble with getting this to work correctly.
i think it all stems down to some DNS issues, but i cannot figure out what
they are.
when i do this...
root:>#telnet mail.bayfamden.com 110
Trying 64.65.17.237...
Connected to bayfamden.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
user amarc
+OK
pass amarc
-ERR aack, child crashed
Connection closed by foreign host.
the info that the /var/log/maillog returns is this...
Jul 14 13:43:51 ns vpopmail[1635]: vchkpw: No user found [amarc@] from
64.65.17.237
the IP address of ns.virtual-support.net (which is the name of the
hostname), is 64.65.17.239, the ip address of ns2.virtual-support.net is
64.65.17.240, the ip address of bayfamden.com is 64.65.17.237
my qmail-pop3 startup line looks like this....
tcpserver 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup ns.virtual-support.net \
/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
my 64.65.rev file looks like...
