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.
