Re: [qmailadmin] Can't login and download mail
I just wanted to let you know, I solved my own problem. In tinkering around, I changed the /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run script to say #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R -v -c100 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup websupport.cc \ /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 21 and now it works fine. That was all it took. Thanks very much for trying to help me, Dave. I'm sorry I didn't get your message until now.

What happens when you telnet to the qmail server on port 110 and login using (step-by-step): user ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and then pass (your password) Also, try ssh'ing to the box and then try (again, step-by-step): telnet localhost 110 user ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) pass (your password) If you get all OK, try doing: list if this also returns a result, then you can login and check mail with the username/password combo. If you get any kind of error message then that will clarify the problem.

Re: [qmailadmin] Can't login and download mail
I realize now that I don't have any pop3 stuff under /var/qmail/supervise. This is how LWQ is telling me to setup qmail, but I didn't do it that way... I used a different howto for setting up qmail. If I want to use this method, I'm sure I can probably set that up, but I don't know what things I need to change/remove elsewhere to ensure that everything is still ok. Nearest I can figure, I'm using courier IMAP/relay-ctrl to handle pop3. Here's an excerpt from the howto I used... vi /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/pop3d.rc Right before /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \ enter this line: /usr/local/bin/envdir /etc/relay-ctrl /usr/local/bin/relay-ctrl-chdir \ vi /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/pop3d change AUTHMODULES=authdaemon to AUTHMODULES=authdaemon relay-ctrl-allow I could be way off here, but looking over my howto, that is the only place where pop3d is really discussed. Can someone advise me?
