Maildir aren't created automatically. You have to create them for every
existing user (nothing some smart awk-ing and grep-ing can't do) and
place a template in /etc/skel to make your life easier in the future.

Hello,
I'm not positive about this, but doesn't that happen if the client is
switching between e-mail programs. One day outlook, next day pegasus,
next netscape, etc.
Could also have to do with the pop3 connection being cut before the quit

That's a little incorrect, if checkpassword wasn't working it would give
'-ERR authentication failed' when connecting to the POP3 service.
This has to do with qmail-local.

qmail-smtpd doesn't do the DNS lookup; whatever you start it from does. If

Ok..
1) The best place to add "user" scripts is in the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
directory. You make a little /usr/local/etc/rc.d/qmail.sh file to run
that command. (this will save it from upgrade to upgrade). The files
in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ are run after /etc/rc.* are done but before you
log in
Type "whereis tcpserver" and use the full pathname to tcpserver that it
gives you. problem fixed
