I've solved the puzzle with help from Gene but I don't understand what's going on. The issue was passwords. I use the LDAP Browser Editor on a W2K machine to add/change user info on the qmail server. When I put this system into production I did a mass change to all my users to change their mail attribute from the test environment to the working one. Both IMAP & sqwebmail worked fine & authenticate as expected. POP didn't. When I looked in the LDAP Browser the password field was blank. When I reentered the password POP works. Thanks for the help.
