Hi,
I'm having an odd pop problem that just started this week.
We are using the Maildir format
We have a nfs spool to store all mail. all mail transaction machines mount
the nfs spool.
We are using the qmail-popup program from the 1.03 distribution
Currently the nfs spool and the mou

I'll decide on commercial support. But you're out. You're too rude for that.

He helped you twice! He said it was a FAQ, so, making a wild guess, you
might look in the FAQ.

We're not here to spoon-feed you. Do your homework. Check the files included

Not. You have a problem with your MUA (sending HTML to lists is

Hi guys, I've got a strange problem with my POP3
Daemon.
It was working fine all along when suddenly, my
client's can't authenticate. They keep having timeout error. I felt strange, so
I waited, and found that after waiting for 2 minutes, it will actually
authenticate and get my mail. I chec

Hello all. After finally getting qmail up and running, I am trying to add
pop to the mix. I have installed checkpassword and added pop to the qmail
startup script.I have also tested the install with:

I have done the following:
$ /var/qmail/bin/maildirmake $HOME/Maildir
$ echo ./Maildir/ > ~/.qmail
as the user who is the owner of the maildir. Then from the command line
entered the following to start the pop3d

if you notice, DJB is VERY careful about where he uses the # prompt and $
prompt in the documentation for this reason. I agree that many don't pay
any attention to which prompt he's using in the documentation when they go
to repeat it, so maybe it should be annotated, or maybe they should learn

checkpassword is being run as root (from inetd for testing
purposes). As it turns out, the problem I was having was all
related to atdot, not checkpassword. However, testing checkpassword
per the INSTALL instructions does not work unless you are root (duh).
I guess it should say that i
I will ask Russ' question again. What user is qmail-popup running as? It
MUST be run as root and /bin/checkpassword should be chmod 700 with NO
suid or sgid bits set. From the sounds of it you are NOT running
qmail-popup as root!
