Greetings Everyone,
I need help getting my POP3 to work again. My mail server has a public ip
address and was working fine until a couple of days ago... i did not make
any changes on the firewall in place since I run it as well, but when i
telnet to the pop port whether inside lan or from a remote location all I
get is this...
akisakye$ telnet mailserver.com 110
Trying xx.xx.xx.xx...
Connected to mailserver.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
POP banner doesnt appear... ive tried to telnet on the machine itself and
a telnet to the localhost or 127.0.0.1 responds immediately with the pop
banner while a telnet to mailserver.com even on the servers terminal
reproduces the results...
Sounds like a DNS issue. Your server will perform a reverse DNS lookup
on the IP connecting during the initial transaction.
What does your /var/qmail/supervise/pop3/run file look like? Try adding
an -H to the tcpserver options to disable remote IP lookups.
