Hello,
I am experiencing a
strange problem and I have been told that it may be a known bug with
vpopmail. The environment is Qmail + Vpopmail + Courier-Imap +
SquirrelMail. Everything appears to be working fine (I can log in
through Outlook client and SquirrelMail) until I switch to a new user (on the
same box). Once I do this, the original user can't log in anymore. I
get an error that the user ID or password is incorrect. The new user is
fine until I try a third user. Again the same thing and now neither of the
first two users can log in anymore. If I reboot the server then everything
returns to normal until I try to use more than one user
again.
I have checked all
the logs and there is no indication of what is going on. There are a bunch
of entries for successful LOGIN and LOGOUT and then all of a sudden a bunch of
failures. I am wondering if maybe my server is locking a user to a PC IP
address for some strange reason.
I have tried
checking the logs, restarting imap, restarting qmail and checking for strange
entries in the config files. I'm stumped on this one. I've also
duplicated this problem just by using the outlook clients and just by using the
squirrelmail client so I don't think the problem rests with either of those
two. I've also asked this question on the courier-imap list and they
indicated it was a known vpopmail bug.
Any ideas or
suggestions? Is this a know bug and is there a
resolution?
Thanks in
advance,
Neil
