Hi,
I have tpop3d 1.5.2 working with auth-perl (which
looks up accounts from mysql, logs to mysql and
also to a file.
Everything seems to be working fine except that if I leave
any mail client (Eudora, Netscape, Outlook) checking
every 5 minutes or so, they sometimes prompt
for a username/password (the server having responded
with "ERR: Lies")... This is annoying because some clients
don't retry and you have to keep typing the password..
My auth script doesn't appear to even have been called...
Here is my tpop3d.conf:
---
listen-address: 0.0.0.0
max-children: 200
mailbox: bsd:/var/mail/$(user)
auth-perl-enable: yes
auth-perl-start: do 'pop_auth.pl';
auth-perl-pass: auth
---
Can anyone help?
Thanks, Andrew
