Last time I saw something like this it ended up being something silly like a lock file in the /tmp directory was stopping the pop3 from working.. ie.. /tmp/ipop3d.georgev or something..

I am trying to get my pop3 server back up and running here at home, after it decided to die today. However I am getting a failing error on login. I have looked through my logs and am getting Error opening or locking INBOX user= I am assuming this is a permissions problem but I am not sure exactly what the permission need to be on the mail spool files. 777? 477? 4777? any help would be great. - Shannon -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
