yes, vpopmail comes with an INSTALL file.  It should suffice.

Jeremy,

Yes I restarted the services, always do since I still use the "qmailctl"
script from my original qmail install.

I was afraid you would suggest this :( 

No I know your not bashing anything; ive heard the same before.

I had qmail setup on this box just as expressed on that site and then one
day I decided to do it the Gentoo way and should have never did it ..

So I will remove that /bin/true comment, but how deep should I go to remove
the gentoo ebuilds? Just a simple emerge -C qmail-vpopmail?

Is there nothing I can try without having to interrupt my environment just
to get pop3 to work?

What in your opinion may be some lingering bugs that you know of?

Thanks again folks, really appreciated.

Regards,

Leonard Bernstein

try testing the account with telnet:

also, try testing this from outside as well, in case there is a firewall or

[vchkpw] Unable to log into pop3 accounts

2006-06-08 Thread Leonard Vpopmail








Hello List,

 

I have a simple situation, I'm just unsure as to how to
correct it J

 

I have an environment that uses primarily IMAP in a Qmail/Vpopmail
platform.

 

Today I needed to assign a pop3 account and its seemed well
until trying to log into the pop3 account. Mail can be sent by the user using
the pop3 account, but not receiving .. The error in Outlook is the generic as
always: 

 

#Log onto incoming mail server (POP3):
Outlook could not logon to the incoming mail server(POP3). Please verify the
settings for User Name, Password and E-mail fields.

 

#Mail logs show: Jun  8 12:34:35 [vpopmail] vchkpw-pop3: (PLAIN)
login success [EMAIL PROTECTED]:192.168.2.1

 

So all seems well, but it isn’t. The mailbox does exist and the
tcpserver is running on 110. Port is open and I'm a little lost . L

 

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance J

 

Lenny
