Hello Gentlemen,

I have today installed tpop3d-1.4.1pre2 on a test box that has been
running 1.3.4.

However I do have an authentication problem with it. I haven't changed
anything on tpop3d.conf and the MySQL database either. I suspect that
there is something I've missed in the man page??

TIA

The entry in mysql db looks like this:

+---------------+------------+---------------------------------------+-----------+
| domain_name   | local_part | password_hash                         | mbox_name |
+---------------+------------+---------------------------------------+-----------+
| freebsd.co.ke | wash       | {md5}32c1081da90fb2ed2b400c22cafa7f8c | wash      |
+---------------+------------+---------------------------------------+-----------+

_and_ here is what I get from the logfile:
