I have installed Qmail via Lifewithqmail instructions. Qmail is working fine. The user directories are getting mail. I am using the qmail pop serve with checkpassword. When I check my mail with outlook I get a message saying the user has no $home/Maildir. Everything seems to be working. I just can't log in from the outside
This is on a Redhat ES3 server.
I can telnet to the mail server from my pc
+OK <4426.1167443997@my.mail.com>
user sdunn
+OK
pass studboy1
-ERR authorization failed
I also tried
sdunn@my.mail.com and got the same results.
I telneted to localhost and here is what happened
[root@mail bdallas]# telnet localhost 110
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK <5341.1167444889@my.mail.com>
user sdunn
+OK
pass studboy1
-ERR this user has no $HOME/Maildir
Connection closed by foreign host.
when I run the checkpassword test it works:
[root@mail qmail-pop3d]# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup hello /bin/checkpassword pwd
+OK <4571.1167444213@hello>
user sdunn
+OK
pass studboy1
/home/sdunn
[root@mail qmail-pop3d]#

Here is my qmailctl stat
[root@mail qmail-pop3d]# qmailctl stat

I have been at this for about 9 hours now so any help will be greatly appreciated. If you need any more info just let me know.
