Hi Jordon,
Thanks for answering me.
I have read the FAQ, and the Admin guide that comes with
Qpopper 4. But both references about $Home/Mailbox, but they
were unclear as to whether qpopper was acually compatible with
the qmail ../Maildir spool, or if it just moves the
/var/spool/mail/user_mail_file to $home/Mail_file.
The Admin Guide mentions the --enable-home-mail =file option. But
the "=file" part, to me, means it just replaces one spool file for
another, and does not support the unique file for each message
format that qmail uses. Am I wrong? (I'm actually hoping I am...)
I guess what I need to know is, did you get it working? If I'm on the
right track I'll keep working on it, if not I'll have to see if there is
another way.
Thanks again.
Dean
