i have no idea why "Hat: No such file or directory" is coming up and only and only
after i press q, it gives stats etc.

on qmail when using vpopmail, default email address and user ID is same.
you should re-check on Accout name on Outlook Express of 2 clients has been
using.
user logon : [EMAIL PROTECTED] , not shorten: client_name
or using some commands below:
telnet <IP server> 110
user <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
pass <password_client1>
.
Look to check status : OK or -ERR authorization first ?
.
Let us know your result and more details error.
