Sorry, I'm using Red Hat with PAM enabled for qpopper and forgot that
it's a separate option. With just --enable-specialauth, qpopper looks
for shadow passwords (as I read the documentation).
Something to try: Attempt to log into qpopper with a non-APOP user, to
elicit the failure. Then immediately go to /var/log and enter "ls -lt |
head". The files at the top of the list will be the latest ones
written, and you can run tail on each one to see if there were any
authentication failures logged by the system authentication mechanisms.
That should give a clue as to exactly what is failing.
