Make sure that you're 'exec'ing tcpserver in the run file. Dave Sill,
this might want updating in 'Life with qmail' -- this seems to burn a
lot of people....
Bad:
tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup FQDN \
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d
Good:
exec tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup FQDN \
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d
and then maybe instructions for supervising it properly? If it sounds
like I'm volunteering to write the new docs, I am more than willing...
