Hello.  I'm trying to use vpopmail along with qmail, but there are some 
difficulties that I cannot explain to myself.

I've installed and configured vpopmail following the installation
instructions contained in the file http://www.inter7.com/vpopmail/INSTALL.
Note that I configured vpopmail with the fast default install (./configure;
make; make install-strip) of point 4 of this document, neglecting point 5 as
I didn't configured with the option --enable-roaming-users=y.

After having added a new domain test.it and a new user of this new domain, I
reached point 12 of the installation instructions, but the command

env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup linuxmag.test.it /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &

(linuxmag is the hostname of this experimental linuxbox) gives back the
following error message:

"tcpserver: fatal: unable to bind: address already used"

This is for the server side of the game.

Then I tried (just for checking purposes) to configure a pop client in
another computer to get the mail from the new user and domain of vpopmail
but, obviously enough, I obtained the error message "authorization failed"
from the server.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance
