This is a continuation from a previous problem and request to the group. It was suggested that I recompile using verbose logging, which I have done, the results are below: Oct 8 15:57:47 ns1 ipop3d[21493]: pop3 service init from 203.34.169.134 Oct 8 15:57:51 ns1 ipop3d[21493]: AUTHENTICATE LOGIN failure host=169-134.dsl.connexus.net.au [203.34.169.134] Oct 8 15:57:51 ns1 ipop3d[21493]: Command stream end of file while reading line user=??? host=169-134.dsl.connexus.net.au [203.34.169.134] I have tried everything I know of to find out why it won't authenticate, with no success. Also what is a "Command stream end of file", is there a limit to the number of characters in a user name? In this case "rbarnold%futurecorporation.net" and lastly Netscape Messenger insists on adding the following to the username in the password request box "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" even though the username is specified as just "rbarnold%futuecorporation.net" (this however still works on my own stystem) I may not be setting Netscape Messenger up correctly (although I am using the same configuration that works on my own system), Could some knowledgeable person of Netscape provide the correct way to set it up please? I am really at the end of my rope and request help urgently please ---------------------------------------------------------------- Below this is a copy of the original email regarding the whole problem for reference. I am trying to set vpopmail up on a remote server (for someone else) and everything seems to work except for using a client to recieve email. The problem is (using netscape) after setting up the user, that the client can't or won't authenticate the user, so preventing any email from being received. I have also installed qmailadmin and that is all working, i.e. I can create new users, passwords etc and when checking the vpopmail directory the new users are listed under the domain. Also if mail is sent to the new user, the mail appears in the new users mail directory and can be read using an editor. I have set vpopmail up to use Mysql for authentication and added the username/password in the vmysql.h file in the vpopmailmail source prior to compiling. I have also checked that mysql is running. I have also setup a test user in vpopmail using vadduser and the new test user shows up in qmailadmin. I have setup the user under Netscape Messenger on a seperate machine as user%domain.com (which works on my own local system) however Messenger, when get mail is clicked asks first for the password and then replies with unable to authenticate. Any and all help would be appreciated Thanks in advance Roger
