[courier-users] Connection closed
Hi I have done a complete installation of Courier-IMAP. I have tested it and from the beginning everything seemed alright. The mails where downloaded from the server just as it should. But after a while the problems came... I have several accounts on the server that shall be checked by one mail-client, this time MS Outlook Express. After checking some of the accounts I got the message The server has terminated the connection or something like that. When I tried to do telnet mail 143, It connects and immediately disconnects. To fix the problem I had to logout my user (windows) and login again. Then I could check the other accounts. This keeps happening all the time. I have no idea what is wrong.

Re: [courier-users] Connection closed
Do what Jeff said in this message that he posted yesterday. MAXPERIP is usually set to 4 (I think) and your client is likely opening more than 4 connections from the same IP. So crank that up to 16 or something, and you should be good to go.

[courier-users] Connection closed by foreign host.
Got a very reluctant courieresmptd that refuses to talk
on port 25 using a 0.37.2 Debian package with authmysql.
Local mail is delivered so it's obviously accessing MySQL
and the rest of the chain just fine but telnetting to it's
port 25 just gets the Subject line.
# ps aux | grep courieremsptd

The strace -f sits at this point below and when accessed
with a telnet host 25 from another box it at least shows
some sign of life.

[pid 1946] close(6)= 0
[pid 1946] select(6, [5], NULL, NULL, NULL
The only vague thing I can string together is maybe the
currently used kernel does not have any ipv6 code or modules
compiled in... would this be enough to stop an otherwise
working courier-mta (internally) from talking via port 25 ?
