We have installed Qmail 1.03, daemontools 0.70, ucspi-tcp-0.88 , dot-forward
& fastforward. The corresponding scripts have been executed & are running.
However, we are unable to receive mail thru pop3 using Outlook Express.
WE R EXECUTING ONLY 2 STEPS TO START POP3 PROCESS...
1: tcpserver -v -R pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup linuxsrv1.spho
/bin/checkpassword \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger
pop3d &
2 :pop3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup /
qmail-popup linuxsrv1.spho /usr/local/bin/checkpassword \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
WHEN WE EXECUTE THE 2ND STEP : ERROR COMES : THIS USER HAS NO $HOME
MAILDIR...
ALL THOUGH 'ROOT' USER DOES,,, AND MAILDIR IS WORKING FINE AS WE R
ABLE TO READ MESSAGES IN THE /HOME/USER/MAILDIR/CUR DIR
