I plan to use qpopper to retrieve root's mail (which I have aliased
to 'charles').
I will use my home lan to connect to the FBSD box from my Mac, and
read the mail.
"Charles" is indeed a valid user on the FBSD box. I ssh to that box
as charles, and am logged in as charles right now.

First of all I have qpopper running on 4.10 and 5.4 with out any
problems. I installed the package version.
Second that error message is saying that user charles is not a valid
user on the ISP where you are telling qpopper to fetch the mail
from.

Subject: qpopper error
Hi,
In my research before posting this question, I saw this same
question
in numerous places, but I never saw a resolution!
I have qpopper 4.0.5 running from inetd on FBSD 4.11.
I start it thus: /usr/local/libexec/qpopper
When I connect from my Mac to check my mail, I see the following in
/
var/log/messages:
Jun 19 19:45:18 moe qpopper[199]: charles at 192.168.254.3
(192.168.254.3): -ERR
[SYS/TMP] POP authentication DB not abailable (user charles): No
such
file or directory (2)
Anyone have any ideas what's wrong?
Thanks,
Charles
