As to your issues with special_auth, does popper itself interact successfully with user account authentication, or is it just poppassd that you have trouble with?

Qualcomm popper and poppassd experts,
I recently downloaded 4.08 of qpopper to install on a Fedora core 3 server. I compiled qpopper along with poppassd using the special_auth parameter. Correct me if I shouldn't include specail _auth. Popper appears to work just fine. However, get the following error from our webmail pop client from poppassd:
Failed to change Password {400 Server busy -- try again later.}I know that it sees the service, but the service is not responding appropriately.
I put these entries in /etc/xinetd.d/poppassd
service poppassd
{
port = 106
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
server = /usr/local/bin/poppassd
server_args = poppassd
wait = no
> instances = 4
disable = no
}
Is the above entry correct? Am I missing something? Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong to get the busy error above?
