Lost, lost, lost!
OK, I'm a newbie with most of this stuff, but I'm having a problem invoking
smtp with tcpserver. Trying this:
--------------------------------------------------------
tcpserver -v -R -x /etc/tcpcontrol/smtp.cdb 0 pop-3
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup hoss.willysworkshop.com \
/bin/checkpassword /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-allow /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir
2>&1 | \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &
--------------------------------------------------------
results in this:
--------------------------------------------------------
[root@hoss smtpd]# 220 hoss.willysworkshop.com ESMTP
502 unimplemented (#5.5.1)
--------------------------------------------------------
and this on my POP client:
--------------------------------------------------------
Could not connect to "hoss.willysworkshop.com" Cause: connection
refused(10061)
--------------------------------------------------------
What am I doing wrong with the tcpserver invocation?
