Okay after plugging away at this last night I think I made some definable progress. It appears the problem was twofold.
1) Solid-pop3d by default has APOP authentication enabled as well as PASSWORD and APOP has a special file one builds with username and password stuff in it (I think anyways). 2) Twisted.Mail.POP3Client uses APOP when login() is called. Which it calls on line 454. Even when a server doesnt support APOP it will still attempt APOP. This behavior was changed with the patch http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/attachment/ticket/2520/pop3client.diff.txt so that if a server doesnt support APOP it will not continue attempting it. So to make things easiest for me (I am not really interesting in learning how to admin APOP if I don't have to) I reinstalled Solid-pop3d and in the /etc/spop3d.conf I added "AllowAPOP no" and restarted solid-pop3d. Next I applied the patch to pop3client and restarted zenoss. After checking the logs zenoss successfully pulled the pop3 email. HOWEVER if I run zenpop3 run I still get which confuses me. Code: "INFO:zen.pop3:credentials user: collect; pass: ******** INFO:zen.ZenPOP3:Connecting to localhost:8789 INFO:zen.ZenPOP3:Connected to ZenHub INFO:zen.pop3:connecting to server using plaintext INFO:zen.ZenPOP3:Daemon ZenPOP3 shutting down ERROR:zen.pop3:Connection failed to management.int:110 INFO:zen.ZenPOP3:zenpop3 shutting down " I have verified that its working but it fails whenever I attempt to test it manually. -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=37465#37465 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
