TB> hi

TB> I'm running qmail as my smtp and pop3 server.  I have normal
TB> unix-accounts and virtual accounts (qmail accounts) and qmail and
TB> vpopmail are installed by the book. I made a virtual domain and some
TB> virtual pop3 accounts with vpopmail which are made correctly.

TB> My pop3 line in inetd (yes, I'm using inetd for now, but that will
TB> change once I got this working) is:

TB> pop3            stream  tcp     nowait  root
TB> /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup my.full.domain
TB> /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir

TB> The problem is that nor the normal users, or the virtual/qmail accounts
TB> can collect their mail.  I've sent the accounts some mail using my own
TB> smtp server which worked (the mail is in the $HOME/Maildir of those
TB> users and I see the entires in the logs).

TB> A little test:

TB> [snip]

TB> #telnet localhost 110
TB> Trying 1.2.3.4 ...
TB> Connected to my.full.domain.
TB> Escape character is `^]`.
TB> +OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
TB> user username
TB> +OK
TB> pass testpass
TB> -ERR authorization failed

TB> [/snip]

TB> in my /var/log/messages, I get:

TB> [snip]
TB>       Sep 18 16:15:31 my.full.domain vchkpw: vchkpw: Read error [/snip]

TB> Always the "-ERR authorization failed" message. This is an
TB> authentification problem for sure.  I replaced vchkpw with
TB> /bin/checkpassword and then only the unixaccounts work (which is normal
TB> because checkpassword gets its passwords from /etc/passwd or
TB> shadow)  I see several people having the same problem, but no answers...
TB> not on qmail.org, nor on the mailinglist-archive.  I'v been working on
TB> this problem for 2 days now.

TB> Any help would be appreciated!

TB> Best regards
