Hi Ken

I cannot live with the file .lock problem beta8 is supposed to fix but so
far Timo has not come up with a reason for beta8 not running on my mail
server.

if he can resolve the issue then i will stay with dovecot as its easier to
have the 1 system set-up. I currently only have around 200 mbox POP3 users.

We'd used qpopper for 9 years, and had very few problems with it. It logs some spurious errors now and then that generate questions on this list, but the answer is usually 'read the faq'. 200 mbox users should be a perfect fit for qpopper.

Just went the other way, and won't be back to qpopper unless it gets
indexed mboxes. I still like qpopper, but it's just too slow for > 5000
users on a single box. Even with all the speed tweaks you can do with
qpopper, with lots of users leaving mail on the server, dovecot is much
faster and has been very reliable - so far!

Hi

i am having lots of problems with dovecot as a POP3 server with file
locking
and the latest beta8 that is supposed to cure this will not run on my
live
servers but is fine on a test box.

just built qpopper 4.0.8 on the test box and it seems fine. has anyone
turned off POP3 in dovecot and used qpopper as their POP3 server?
