OK, I fixed it after doing some googling.. here is the deal..
when I re-installed vpopmail.. and created the user and group.. the uid
and gid were set to 510 and that isn't right.. so I changed these to 89
like they are supposed to be.. then I went to the /var/qmail/users/
directory and opened the assign file and changed the 510 for each domain
to 89 then I had to rebuild the cdb file buy running
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-newu and everything works just fine now.. also
might want to run qmailctl restart.. :)
thanks everyone for your help.

Did you delete the mailboxes, too? Are the directories there? Is the

What does your log file say? It could also be a memory issue.

ok, I tried the mysqladmin stuff.. and that didn't change it.. then
I did a test (telnet domain.com 25) and sent an e-mail and that
worked.. so I'm not sure what is going on here..
it doesn't make any sense to me.. unless there is some config that
I am missing..
because squirrelmail only seems to give me the error when I have a
correct e-mail address.. otherwise it tells me that I have an
incorrect user
.. so something is happening with the password I think..
not sure what it is...

I believe it is.. I can create new e-mail accounts and so on..
but I can't seem to connect to the server with my thunderbird or
squirrelmail.. when I try to connect with squirrelmail I get this
error message: * ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server.
*when I try to connect with thunderbird I get this message:
sending of password did not succeed. authorization failed.
Does SMTP work? IMAP problems can be related to DNS.
