To The List,
I have a new server that is using Bill's 0.5 patch and vpopmail and
MySQL.....Everything works just great, POP3 authenticates fine, and the
username is added to the "allowed relay" table in the database.
I first started noticing problems when I started to try and send mail
via the server, after authenticating with POP3. My mail client(Mozilla
Thunderbird) seems to pause on "Delivering Mail" mode. If I don't click
cancel, the "Delivering Mail" window stays up indefinitly. Using
netstat on the server shows an open SMTP session from the client,
however no new mail is being listed in /var/log/qmail/current ... The
message never makes it to the queue.
This got me thinking, so I POP'd into the server and then opened up
telnet to try and send a message by hand. The server responds as
anticipated until I try to exit the "data" portion of the message with
the period(.) command. The server does not end the message there, but
continues onto a new line.....There is no real way to exit the data
portion of the message!
Anyone have a problem similar to this one? Thanks,
Peter
