1. How does the line look like?
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup eof.saitti.net
/usr/bin/checkpassword
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
(I tried to put it al on one line, and I guess it is, even it shows up as 2 lines
whatever I view it with.
2. What does "telnet localhost 110" do?
Nothing
3. What about your hosts.{allow,deny}?
nothing as deny yet, because atm we're just testing...

Is your checkpassword in /usr/bin? i don't find the whole thing... maybe I'm just stupid`? =) (Executable for root?) Does your entry in /etc/services say "pop3" - since my says "pop-3"? no - so that's one thing... 2. What does "telnet localhost 110" do? there's just nothing in the port...

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Is your checkpassword in /usr/bin? i don't find the whole thing... maybe I'm just stupid`? =) checkpassword is a separate package. Download it and build it. (You may find some patches from www.qmail.org handy, like the one for PAMified system - if your system uses PAM.) (Executable for root?) Does your entry in /etc/services say "pop3" - since my says "pop-3"? no - so that's one thing... Add a line that looks like this to your /etc/services: pop-3 110/tcp (you may use pop3 instead of pop-3). Use the same spelling as in /etc/inetd.conf. Restart inetd. Now something should be listening. (You may also test by replacing pop3 with 110 in the /etc/inetd.conf file.) BTW, the official (supported) way is to invoke pop3 from tcpserver, not inetd. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 6.0.2 -- QDPGP 2.60 Comment: http://community.wow.net/grt/qdpgp.html iQA/AwUBN7Pkw1MwP8g7qbw/EQJLMgCfdqt/tXxcTgsasrkbqJYaaDuDqaEAoIZc 5GADbufKmXP2AlTr+OoTAp6o =jW9v -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Petr Novotny, ANTEK CS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.antek.cz PGP key ID: 0x3BA9BC3F -- Don't you know there ain't no devil there's just God when he's drunk.

I changed the line to pop-3 (the rest same as earlier) and now I get into telnet 110. well, I put user maria7 server replies +OK then pass X server says the passwd is invalid. Should I get this, because I'm using mailbox, not maildir, or is something still wrong? -Maria

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 well, I put user maria7 server replies +OK then pass X server says the passwd is invalid. Uhm. Is your checkpassword really installed and working? Without it, you can't go on. Should I get this, because I'm using mailbox, not maildir, or is something still wrong? So you're using mailbox? qmail-pop3d doesn't work on mailboxes. You either need maildir, or another popper. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 6.0.2 -- QDPGP 2.60 Comment: http://community.wow.net/grt/qdpgp.html iQA/AwUBN7PoWFMwP8g7qbw/EQK3cwCg3mZV4iosD2Ojo9Dy4qKzXEy4UPIAn3gf 2YyS/GUvoE2EFzwNDTi/8NzY =Y2Wx -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Petr Novotny, ANTEK CS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.antek.cz PGP key ID: 0x3BA9BC3F -- Don't you know there ain't no devil there's just God when he's drunk.

For example, with username fred, password bloggs, printf "fred\0bloggs\0Y123456\0" | /bin/checkpassword `which id` 30 will execute /bin/id if the password is right.

Somehow I seem to be gettting problems with everything I tired to put /home/maria7/Maildir/ in my .qmail - file. Now my mail doesn't go into Mailbox, but also not in Maildir.
