Hi I really need some help with this as Its driving me nuts!.
I rebooted my machine and now pop3 doesn't work anymore. (ugh!)..
password checking works (it'll tell me if a password is right or wrong!)..
so this isnt the problem
i get errors via pop3 telling me $HOME/Maildir doesn't exist.. (it does)
I'll show you why now.!
I added in code to vchkpw to show me the shell ENV's HOME,SHELL and USER...
I get this..
Apr 6 14:26:49 brain vpopmail[15840]: vchkpw: (stuart) putenv -> USER
USER=stuart
Apr 6 14:26:49 brain vpopmail[15840]: vchkpw: (stuart) putenv -> HOME
HOME=/daemon/vpopmail/domains/inter-ez.net/stuart
Apr 6 14:26:49 brain vpopmail[15840]: vchkpw: (stuart) putenv ->
HOME SHELL=NOLOGIN
all seems fine there? ok.
now to show you permissions..
(vpopmail is compiled with the group being daemon)
id vpopmail = uid=509(vpopmail) gid=3000(daemon) groups=3000(daemon)
dir permissions..

from what I can tell, there is absolutely no problem with this, but
obviously there is.. please help! :)
vpopmail was compiled with...
./configure --prefix=/daemon/vpopmail --enable-logging=y
--enable-qmaildir=/daemon/qmail --enable-roaming-users=y
I even turned off ip-alias-domains incase it was caused by that, but it
wasn't :(
