Hi to the vchkpw group, I was successfully running a pop3 service for qmail. However, I am now experiencing some difficulties which i am hoping somebody can help shed light on.
I am getting the following error from my mail client Ximian Evolution on RedHat 9.0. Unable to connect to POP server 192.168.1.2 Error sending password: (null) Further, when I've telnetted into the POP3 server, telnet 192.168.1.2 110 I do not get the banner message from qmail-popup, and I get no response for any of the strings i enter, i.e., user [EMAIL PROTECTED] or even when i am entering in jibberish i still get no response. I was running qmail and vpopmail successfully before this so I am unsure of what the problem could be now. It is just one of these things that stopped working :>( . For some background. My pop3 script looks as follows, /etc/init.d/vpopmail-start #!/bin/sh env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \ tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.elvis4.infolearn \ /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir & This is a copy of the output from the command, ps -aux root 234 0.0 0.4 1240 292 ?
