Hi all, Having followed the directions at http://matt.cadillac.net/computing/mail/qmail/qmail.toaster1.5.shtml to the tee, I had everything up and running without any significant (install) problems. After all was configured and I added a domain name to the system and tried logging in via port 143. No problems, I could see the message (sent earlier) in my INBOX and pick it up via remote login too. This worked for imap-SSL based logins as well. The problem came in when trying to authenticate via pop3. Every time I login, the system displays the following: Trying ::1... Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Hello there. user [EMAIL PROTECTED] +OK Password required. pass my-password domain invalid your-domain.com -ERR Login failed. -- The pop3 startup file is as follows: #!/bin/sh prefix=/usr/local exec_prefix=/usr/local bindir=${exec_prefix}/bin libexecdir=${exec_prefix}/libexec pidfile=/var/run/pop3d.pid . ${prefix}/etc/pop3d.config case $1 in start) /usr/bin/env - /bin/sh -c " . ${prefix}/etc/pop3d.config ; \ `sed -n '/^#/d;/=/p' <${prefix}/etc/pop3d.config | \ sed 's/=.*//;s/^/export /;s/$/;/'` ${exec_prefix}/libexec/couriertcpd -address=0 \ -stderr=/var/log/mail/pop3/pop3log \ -maxprocs=10 -maxperip=3 -pid=${pidfile} $TCPDOPTS \ 110 ${exec_prefix}/sbin/pop3login ${libexecdir}/authlib/authvchkpw \ ${exec_prefix}/bin/pop3d Maildir" ;; stop) ${exec_prefix}/libexec/couriertcpd -pid=${pidfile} -stop ;; restart) ${exec_prefix}/libexec/couriertcpd -pid=${pidfile} -restart esac exit 0 MySQL Support is enabled and I can see the domain-name in the db-records . The pop3 error log shows the following: ERR: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[::ffff:server-ip-address]] Please note: this is my first time with vpopmail -- though I tried searching the mail archive, I could not find anything relevant except a single document which didn't help. I appreciate any pointers. Thanks very much, Mustafa. -- "If I knew I'd live this long, I'd take better care of myself."
