Real strange situation with Qpopper

[Kevin M. Barrett]

I need some insight in understanding this issue.

Two days ago I changed all of the accounts on my Linux server  to remove a 
Prefix that was left over from when the clients account were on a public 
server.  That switch went quite well, very few issues, except for one very 
major one.  Some people are still able to connect to the server using the 
old user name and password. mind you there is no entry for the old user 
name in either the password or shadow files.  When a user connects using 
the old user name they see that there is no email in the mailbox.  I have 
walked this through using telnet to port 110 so this is not a client 
issue...  I assume that a reboot of the box will take care of this but This 
is a real issue.  The LINUX Distro is Redhat 9.0
