By default, there is a file called ~vpopmail/etc/open-smtp that is in the same format as tcp.smtp. The first thing to do would be to check that this file exists and your IP has been placed in it. That will ensure at least the first half of the process is working.

After every authentication where an IP is added, this file is combined with /etc/tcp.smtp and hashed in /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb. You will also want to check that this file is being created and is writable by your vpopmail user.

Hi y'all

How can I troubleshoot why roaming users (POP-before-SMTP) isn't working for me? I've 
compiled vpopmail with --enable-roaming-users, and recompiled everything else after 
installing. But I still get a "553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed 
rcpthosts (#5.5.3 - chkuser)."  I'm not quite sure the mechanisms that allow this to 
work. vchkpw intercepts a pop/imap connection and appends the remote IP to a cdb file 
used by chkuser?

Thanks for any direction pointing.

Quinn
