pop3 login fails on virtual host imap mail server

pop3 login fails on virtual host imap mail server

Post by God_Of_Pai » Thu, 17 May 2001 01:30:14



I set up a virtual host webserver computer using vhost. I have imap running
as my pop3 server. When I add a new domain an adim account for that domain
is automaticly created. Then I add more user accounts for mail. Mail is
arriving for these new user accounts and I can ssh in to read the mail in
the vmail directory for that user. The admin accounts can login and get
mail but the user accounts that I created can not. They keep getting bad
password errors trying to login.

There are alias accounts for the admins but not the users. Could this be
the problem? vhost does not provide any documentation as to why aliases are
used, why or how to created them.

I tied to telnet into the pop3 server but after I am logged in I can not do
any thing, I tried help, ls, all sorts of commands but keep getting errors.
Is there any documentation as to what commands can be used while telnet'ed
into a mail server?

Is any one know about setting up a virtual hosts mail accounts that can
help me with this?

Is anyone using vhost to configure a system that could explain these
problems and lack of documentation?

Thanks.
