Changed softlimit from 25 to 200 and its all works great now. Thanks !!! Andras Kende http://www.kende.com

[vchkpw] vpopmail pop3 unable to scan $HOME/Maildir
Hello, I found a deserted email account with over 70.000 messages (few months of spam) in my vpopmail 5.4.3 mail server on FreeBSD… If I try to pop3 these (Outlook, Outlook Express, Mozilla Thudnerbird) The problem is its responding like : Mail Sever … responded: unable to scan $HOME/Maildir Pop3 workaround is to not to have more than 1500 messages in the Maildir… Same problem happened after a week vacation, had to keep moving messages in and out of the maildir…. Thanks, Andras Kende
