Hi...
I've compiled qpopper 4.1b9 under Mac OS X 10.5.3 (Leopard).
I can connect to the server fine from localhost:
telnet localhost 110
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying fe80::1...
telnet: connect to address fe80::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Qpopper (version 4.1b9) at botrytis-local.local starting.
QUIT
+OK Pop server at botrytis-local.local signing off.
Connection closed by foreign host.
However, attempting the same from a different machine on the
local network gives:
telnet 192.168.0.12 110
Trying 192.168.0.12...
telnet: connect to address 192.168.0.12: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host
I'm thinking the problem might be IPv6 related?
qpopper is being launched by launchd
Previously appfirewall.log was recording
Jun 9 00:59:04 botrytis-local popper[5131]: (v4.0.8) Unable
to get canonical name of client 0.0.0.0: Unknown host (1)

however I'm now running qpopper with '-R' to not require
reverse lookup, but the problem still persists
The firewall configuration seems to be ok:
ipfw list
65535 allow ip from any to any
Any suggestions appreciated. There doesn't seem to be anything
useful in the logfiles that I can see.
Same problem occurs with version 4.0.8
What if you disable the firewall, just to see if that fixes it?
The same thing happens when the firewall is disabled (ipfw disable firewall)
Even with an explicitly granted rule (00100 allow ip from any to
any dst-port 110) only localhost can connect.
I'm running 10.4 on my Macs, and they run Qpopper just fine,
including connecting from other hosts. With 4.1, they also accept
IPv6 connections.
As a test, please download the latest 4.1 distribution and try the following:
1. make realclean
2. ./configure --enable-debugging --enable-standalone
3. make
4. popper/popper -v
5. < verify that the output from the above is "Qpopper version
4.1b10 (standalone)" >
6. sudo popper/popper 8888 -t /tmp/pop.log
7. < from another machine > telnet 192.168.0.12 8888
After the test:
8. sudo killall popper
