POP3 Service reported as "stopped"

it actually says its "offline" not "stopped". my mistake

in my installation of ISPConfig 2.1.1 (i know not the latest) the pop3 service doesnt seem to be running. im using postfix following EXACTLY how the Suse 10.0 Perfect Install guide says.

SOmeone let me know how to get the pop3 service running. Obviosuly this is causeing errors in basicly everything that has to do with mail. (i.e. Webmail, which i just installed) Webmail gives me a php "connection refused on localhost:110" or something like that which means the pop3 service isnt running. also ISPConfig says its "offline"

by the way, falko is the man and my new idol

 

heres the result of netstat -tap

shouldnt there be something about courier or pop3 in there somewhere??

 

it says:

Code:

carolina:~ # /etc/init.d/courier-pop3 start
-bash: /etc/init.d/courier-pop3: No such file or directory
carolina:~ #

ugg

 

Code:

carolina:~ # ls -la /etc/init.d/courier*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 1938 Sep  9 14:34 /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 2376 Sep  9 14:55 /etc/init.d/courier-imap

YESS TILL IS AWESOME!!!!!!

i ran that ls and noticed that the path to the courier pop was courier-pop not courier-pop3...started that and it worked perfectly

now i just need to get it to start on boot

thanks a lot
