Thanks for the advice Davide!=20
So I inquired the next issue with the '-ERR Invalid auth or access
denied' error. I have inserted/edit many debug points in the source
code. I found where the problem was:
* In POP3Utils.cpp:
POP3_HANDLE UPopBuildSession(const char *pszDomain, const char
*pszUsrName,
const char *pszUsrPass, SYS_INET_ADDR const
*pPeerInfo)
{
[...]
if (pszUsrPass !=3D NULL && strcmp(pszUsrPass, pUI->pszPassword)
!=3D 0) {
ErrSetErrorCode(ERR_INVALID_PASSWORD);
UsrFreeUserInfo(pUI);
return INVALID_POP3_HANDLE;
}
printf("[POP3Utils.cpp] UPopBuildSession[1]:\n"); // I reach
this checkpoint
if (UsrPOP3Lock(pUI) < 0) {
UsrFreeUserInfo(pUI);
return INVALID_POP3_HANDLE;
}
printf("[POP3Utils.cpp] UPopBuildSession[2]:\n"); // Checkpoint
not reached [!]
[...]
}
Here clearly saw that the password validation was ok after issuing 'PASS
the_passwd' to the server. After it, was necessary to add the next
checkpoint:
* In UsrUtils.cpp:
int UsrPOP3Lock(UserInfo *pUI)
{
char szLockPath[SYS_MAX_PATH] =3D "";
UsrGetPop3LocksPath(pUI, szLockPath, sizeof(szLockPath));
=09
printf("[UsrUtils.cpp] UsrPOP3Lock[1]: szLockPath =3D %s\n",
szLockPath);
if (SysLockFile(szLockPath) < 0)
return ErrGetErrorCode();
return 0;
}
That threw straight to my eyes:
[UsrUtils.cpp] UsrPOP3Lock[1]: szLockPath =3D
/var/lib/xmail/pop3locks/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
And not, the directory 'pop3locks' didn't exist! After reviewing the
documentation, paying special attention to the "MailRoot structure"
section, I realized that still many directories were not yet created...
So, I crated the as appointed by the doc, and problem fixed! xDD
So, again, the most valuable advice once again was: read the docs
carefully! xDDDD
Only one proposal for the xmail developers: maybe to be more specific
with the '-ERR Invalid auth or access denied' message, to differentiate
whether the fail is owed to authentication or to file
creation/manipulation... ;)
Thanks!

POP3 does not accept empty passwords:
