Hello, I am underway installing a new box with qmail, this time using the new daemontools-0.70 plus ucspi-tcp-0.88 and it generally works like a champ. Although I'm not yet convinced that the two-stage pipe thing is a sufficient replacement for full pipe control in supervise, this is far easier to get right than the earlier method was. Now the problem: I started a pop session, with my maildir emtpy: telnet host 110, user xyz, pass abc list -> 0 Then I sent me a message which got placed in my Maildir/new... list-> 0 _still_ I waited several seconds and tried again, and it was still 0... When I finished the pop3 session and started a new one, I had no problem seeing and reading the message. This is under Linux, 2.2.17-pre (Debian 2.2 default kernel). Am I bitten by Linux metadata semantics? Does qmail-pop3d scan the mailbox only on login or at (long) fixed intervals? Best Regards, --Toni++
