What I have discovered until now, is that qmail-pop3d IS EFECTIVELY sending its logs on the filedescriptor 2 as it is supposed, but tcpserver is receiving them on the filedescriptor 1, so it outputs the logs to the network, where are seen by the POP3 client.
Now I'm trying to learn more about bash output redirection, because I think that the problem is there.

I was trying to setup POP3 loggin/accounting for qmail-ldap and I tried
the answer given by Claudio Jeker on 27/5/2003 on this list
#!/bin/sh exec 2>&1 exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l 0 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \ mail01.domain.net /var/qmail/bin/auth_pop /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
This does not work for me (actually I use a slightly more complicated run script
produced by qmail-conf, but even the above mentioned run script does not work):
I always get acct information in pop3 client session.
At first I supposed it was my run script (if you find it appropriate, I will send it), but when I tried the given solution I thought that maybe the problem is somewhere else...
Could this be related to a not so recent qmail-ldap (20030101.patch)?
Sorry for bothering you, but I'm not able to understand where the problem is...
