Hi i set up qmail and it works fine for those who have shell access
but not for my users who login through pop server. When they try to login
they get the message:
"The mail server responded:
this user has no $HOME/Maildir
Please enter a new password"
I read the man page on "Maildir". My question is how do i set up a
maildir if it is not set up when i add a new user? If i have to manually
set up a "Maildir" and its subdirectories how do i get the messages in the
current $HOME/Mailbox file exported into the "Maildir" ? Also what
permissions do i set for the "Maildir" and its subdir's ?
I noticed this line in my inetd.conf:
#<off># pop-3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd ipop3d
Is this correct ? If so how does qmail-pop3d run?
I also installed ucspi-tcp and checkpassword to try it that way. I ran the
checkpasswd tests from the command line it worked fine and i have
qmail-popup and checkpasswd set to run on startup.
# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host /bin/checkpassword pwd
+OK <...@host>
user sam
+OK
pass baker
/home/baker
It is not a "case" problem.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance
