I'm new to dovecot and have a configuration question. I'm attempting to
have a Windows 7 system on my secure LAN connect to the Ubuntu server
using POP3 on channel 110 and retrieve mail from the /var/mail directory.
The user is defined on the Ubuntu machine and when running the Windows
Internet E-Mail Settings tool, the Test Account Settings Logs onto the
server successfully and sends a test message.
Sending message is a distinct service from retrieving Email.
However, when I perform a
Send/Receive operation from the user's Outlook, all steps complete but no
mail is pulled down from the server.
I have tried setting: mail_location = /var/mail/%u
and restarted dovecot, but nothing changes. How can I debug this? I'm
unsure where to look for clues as to what's happening under the hood. Any
pointers would be appreciated.
Log files would be a good start. Maybe start with something like
log_path = /path/to/logfile
auth_verbose = yes
auth_debug = yes
mail_debug = yes
verbose_ssl = yes
