Sorry if I was in any way unclear. I am specifying the domain along with the username when connecting.

I was attempting to connect with my mail client, since the settings should have been unchanged from before the old server failed. I have since attempted to connect via telnet to port 110 in order to look for additional clues. The message I get is:

telnet <ip> 110
Trying <ip>...
Connected to <server>.<domain> (<ip>).
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK <8539.1291574634@<server>.<ip>>
user <user>@<domain>
+OK
pass <password>
Error. Domain <domain> was not found in the assign file
+OK


However, this line /is/ present in my existing /var/qmail/users/assign file:
+<domain>-:<domain>:89:89:/home/vpopmail/domains/<domain>:-::

and the directory structure in question is also in place. And, for the record - since Jake's backup and restore scripts make specific mention of this - the guid and uid for the vpopmail user is 89.

Any thoughts? I really need some help to get this up and running.

Roxanne,



I’m not the expert here but if you are trying to login to squirrel mail you have to use u...@domain.com to log on.



Hope this helps.

Additional information: I was more than a bit sleepy when I wrote

to helping out here:
