Hi all,

I tried using the tcp server script example to start the pop-3 service (vpopmail 
install doc), and the pop3 login worked without any problems! Obviously I am doing 
something wrong with the other script.

I'll keep that install in one of the bsd jails and try and figure out what the problem 
is and hopefully update everyone soon. The sqwebmail however still doesn't 
authenticate. I'll go over the docs a few more times, I am sure it's something I've 
overlooked during a hasty install.

Best regards,
mustafa.
