Greetings

I'm back again with another (stupid?) question
Sometimes I get the following message (in  the syslog)

<username> at <fqdn> (<ipaddr>): -ERR [AUTH] You must use stronger authentication such as AUTH or APOP to connect to this server

Well, but that <username> HAS an entry in the APOP database and, in fact, he/she can download e-mail w/o problems.

Qpopper is 4.0.4 and was configured with:
--disable-update-abort
--enable-apop
--enable-bulletins
--enable-group-bulls
--enable-nonauth-file=<pathtononauthfile>
--enable-poppassd
--enable-popuid=<popadminuser>
--enable-server-mode
--disable-specialauth
and is running on a DEC Alpha w/ DECUnix 4.0f.
The client is Eudora 5.1/5.2 running on a Windoz NT 4.0 ws.

Have you, gurus, an answer to this?
