I did restart tpop3d and it's been working all along. There were some changes
in pam.conf.

I do have a core dump also (on that day I was did the upgrade). Maybe this
can shed some light on what happened??? I just need instructions on debugging.


I haven't recompiled tpop3d as yet. I'll upgrade to the latest release soon.

Thanks
