Hello

When I try to check an account on the server using qpopper it reports "no new messages".

The server log shows nothing out of the ordinary:

Oct 27 15:56:41 [xinetd] START: pop-3 pid=12133 from=192.168.221.206
Oct 27 15:56:41 [popper] Stats: havenshade 0 0 0 0 192.168.221.206 192.168.221.206


There are several messages in the mailbox for this user, and I have attempted sending new messages to insure that they are marked as new for the mail client.

Oddly, when I log into the shell and use "mail -u username" to check the messages, it reports the same: "no new messages".

However, if I log into the shell and use "mail -f /var/spool/username" it shows the messages as expected.

Here is my setup information:
------------------
Using Gentoo 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 i686 AMD Athlon
Qmail  1.03-r10

I have the mailboxes located in a central location: /home/postman/mailbox-username
I have /var/mail and /var/spool/mail set up to forward to /home/postman/mailbox-username
------------------


Anyone seen anything like this?

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!

Kato
