Hi falko , Thanks for you reply . My 1st problem is solved now , it was the file ownership problem , I changed the ownership from "root" to "vmail" and is woking perfect with "virtual_transport = maildrop" . Maildrop log directory is /var/log/ [root@mail ~]# ls -l /var/log/maildroprc.log -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 459 Jul 1 08:33 /var/log/maildroprc.log But what could be reason that i am getting login faild form 110 / 143 i.e pop & imap ? IF you see in my below posted config file i have only changed the "authdaemond_path" as #authdaemond_path:/usr/var/spool/authdaemon/socket authdaemond_path:/var/spool/authdaemon/socket This is because in my case the "socket" is inside the /var/spoo/authdaemon/ directory I checked with "/usr/var/spool/authdaemon/socket" path too but still no luck. Do I need to add any more parameter setting in below config file or it is file permission issue. what I am missing for pop3 and imap ? Thanks & Regards Jayesh Shinde

Is any one gone through this problem if yes please help and guide me . Thanks & Regards Jayesh Shinde
