[tpop3d-discuss] LDAP & Maildir

[Jari Huuskonen]

Hello all.

I had authentication problems last time 
with ldap, but thanks to Thai problem was solved.
Now i got problems to get clients to read their mails from
maildir. exam.(/home/Domain/john )

Tested with several types of auth-ldap-mailbox, auth-ldap-mailbox-attr,
maildir options but no result.

Seems to me that tpop3 is reading information from right place, but some
reason do not understand the mailformat or maildir format, i'm not sure.
"configured with --enable-mbox-maildir. --disable-mbox-bsd"

User gets authenticated with success, but log says
unknown mailbox type bsd?
