Re: Can qmail feed multiple users from one POP3 Mailbox
yes, this is possible. I setup a host with the holdremotepatch. after calling ISP, automaticly all mail is dumped by SMTP to my mailserver ( one mailbox with all messages for the domain ). Qmail redirect these messages to the right local mailbox The holdremote patch is used to hold the remote delivery to my ISP and each 20 min. cron triggers qmail to send and automaticly receives his mail to from the ISP. setting this up is very easy and without, until now, errors for several months.

I need some task that will connect to this mailbox, (say driven by cron), read the messages, and then post them to the various mailboxes on my system. Is there such a task in qmail?

i should make a link to a S50qmail-pop3d. Sxx are start scripts Kxx are shutdown scripts ln -s /ets/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3d.init /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S50qmail-pop3d marco leeflang Peter Abplanalp wrote: Hello, I've had similar problems ;-) 1º - The POP3 service is not initializing on startup, a have to go to the /etc/rc.d/init.d and manually start qmail-pop3d.init (./qmail-pop3d.init start) You probably need to link /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-popsd.init to an rc script in the rc*.d directories. i.e. ln -s /ets/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3d.init /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K50qmail-pop3d you might want to do that for all the run levels. An easier fix is to just add the pop command line to the existing /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail script. 2º - When I test the POP3 service, after I start it manually, telneting the POP3 port (telnet 192.168.100.1 110) this is what I receive: - [root@exion /root]# telnet 192.168.100.1 110 Trying 192.168.100.1...

It is case sensitive. I made the same mistake. -Peter Peter Abplanalp StorageTek [EMAIL PROTECTED]
