Hi! I posted this earlier to the "bulletin board" archive, but I wasn't subscribed to the list at the time. I don't know if it went out to the list, or just got added to the archives, so I am posting directly to the list, just in case.
I installed the latest Qmail, Vpopmail (stable, not development), and Courier-IMAP (yes, I have AUTHDAEMONS="vchkpw"), daemontools, and ucspi-tcp, following the instructions in "Bill's Qmail Toaster Guide". I then created a virtual domain using vadddomain (for this example, I will use virtualdomain1.com as the domain). I then added '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', and got prompted to create a password, which I did. I sent a test email from my Yahoo! account, and it got to the mailbox just fine. However, when I attempt to retrieve the email using any mail client, I keep getting prompted for the username/password. The /var/log/maillog says: vchkpw: vpopmail user not found [EMAIL PROTECTED]:<IP ADDRESS> I tried deleting then re-adding the domain, however, it does not seem to work. It seems that I am only able to either get login working correctly, or mail sent to the mailbox correctly, but not both together (I was having the problem before where loging in as the user was working, but mail was being bounced back saying "user not know", even though the user *did* exist) Because 'virtualdomain1.com' is not the default domain, I was using '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' as the username. The odd thing is that I can only either: 1. Be able to authenticate as a virtual user, but mail sent to the user bounces back as "user unknown" (I have since learned that this is the case if Courier0IMAP is running the POP3 service); or 2. Mail sent to a virtual user reached the mailbox, but I am unable to authenticat (this seems to occur when vpopmail is handling the POP3, instead of Courier-IMAP) I even tried using the Sqwebmail interface, since it reads the users' mailboxes directly, as opposed to acting as a POP/IMAP client, but I was still unable to authenticate (I did not try it with Courier-IMAP handling the POP service, however). Your help greatly appreciated, ===== -- Alan Murrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
