Never heard of it. Or do you mean
You've got much more basic problems here. Uninstall qmail and
everything else related, and then re-install according to the
instructions in Life with qmail at http://lifewithqmail.org . Follow
all of the instructions to the letter.
It *really* does work! Give it a try, You can almost do a
any help in trouble shooting this would be appreciated.

Hm. Maybe Account refers to 'whatever the heck you have arbitrarily named
this account today', in this case, 'cliff.carorder.com'
If so, what you actually need to do is check the userna
pffft. again, the answer is in the doc's. ;-)

Here's how to set up qmail to use maildir for your incoming mail:
% maildirmake $HOME/Maildir
% echo ./Maildir/ ~/.qmail
Make sure you include the trailing slash on Maildir/.
y'know, i'm starting to like qmail more

chmoded too 'drwx-- ' and the Maildir files/directories are owned
I'm getting this message from my pop3 clients.

The server responded:

Well, the user does have a Maildir. I can see new mail piling up in
Maildir/new.
It's being started as follows:
supervise /var/lock/qmail-pop3d
This is correct as far as I can tell.

Thank you!
It works!
Now the mystery is how did I make that file in the first place?
I'm SURE that I followed the instructions in the qmail 'INSTALL.maidir' to
create this file. (as shown below)

Note that qmail-popup presents ``/bin/checkpassword'' as the
domain part of the timestamp in this banner.
qmail-popup $HOST $CHKPASS $COMMAND Maildir \
So it's likely that $HOST is not set.

Perhaps your checkpassword is not working properly. Have a look on
