pop3-problem with vmailmgr

2001-06-18 Thread Severin Olloz

Hello...

Today I have setup a qmail-server with vmailmgr and omail for testing and hey 
it works very well - I will soon replace my sendmail-server :-)

But I have a problem with the pop3-server. I can connect and the server 
accept my passwor, but I can't get any mails form it. I see always this 
message: this user has no $HOME Maildir.

So vmailmgr save the mails in $HOME/users/username and not in $HOME/Maildir!?

Must I patch the pop3-server? I found nothing about this problem! I read 
follow in the vmailmgr-howto:



Configure qmail-popup/qmail-pop3d to use `checkvpw` as the password checker. 
This step is dependant on how you have installed qmail.

Replace `checkpassword` in the command you use to invoke 
qmail-popup/qmail-pop3d (either in `/etc/inet.conf` or in a `tcpserver` 
command) with `checkvpw`.

And/Or at the prompt type: `echo checkvpw  /var/qmail/control/checkpassword`


So my command-line of the pop3-server shows like this:

tcpserver 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup servername /usr/local/bin/checkvpw 
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d 

But I doesn't work :-(

Thanks
