I followed Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier And MySQL (Fedora Core 5) exactly with the exception of Clamv/Amavis/Spamassasin. I also am using Fedora Core 6. I used the following 3rd party software in place of the onces noted in the How-to: http://www.enlartenment.com/packages/fedora/6/i386/enlartenment-release-6-1.mf.noarch.rpm http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pu...x/core/6/source/SRPMS/postfix-2.3.3-2.src.rpm http://web.onda.com.br/nadal/postfix/VDA/postfix-2.3.3-vda.patch.gz I added a user and am able to receive email for that user. When I attempt to retreive the messages for that user this is what I get: Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel authdaemond: received auth request, service=pop3, authtype=login Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel authdaemond: authmysql: trying this module Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel authdaemond: SQL query: SELECT email, password, "", 5000., 5000, "/home/vmail", "", "", "", "" FROM users WHERE email = "[email protected]" Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel authdaemond: supplied password does not match encrypted password Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel authdaemond: authmysql: REJECT - try next module Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel authdaemond: FAIL, all modules rejected Jan 24 20:12:35 gabriel pop3d: LOGIN FAILED, [email protected], ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] courier-authlib-mysql-0.59-1.fc6.mf courier-authlib-0.59-1.fc6.mf mysql-server-5.0.27-1.fc6 postfix-2.3.3-2 I have googled all day for this error and have not found a resolution. I have old_password=1 in my my.cnf
This is either too dificult or I haven't provided enough information. Does anyone have any sugestions? Should I replace the OS with FC5 and follow the How-To again? This seems to be my only option. I have debugging turned on to show the password but the logs don't look like the others I have seen.
OK, I have the Fedora Core 5 iso's downloaded and I'm heading over to the Colo to burn them and start again ....
I reinstalled the OS with Fedora Core 6 and I am having the same problem. Here is the error from the maillog Jan 25 20:14:41 gabriel pop3d: Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] Jan 25 20:14:58 gabriel pop3d: LOGIN FAILED, [email protected], ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] Jan 25 20:14:58 gabriel pop3d: authentication error: Input/output error I'm searching the forum ... smtp works and there is mail waiting for the user
Have you tried to follow the tutorial as close as possible? There seems to be a problem with the password. Are you sure the password is correct?
I never resolved the issue before I reverted the OS to FC5. Now that I am on FC5 I have a different problem. I am authenticated for pop3 now but I am receiving an error ( I opened a new thread for it below) Jan 26 08:07:59 gabriel pop3d: Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1] Jan 26 08:08:18 gabriel authdaemond: received auth request, service=pop3, authtype=login Jan 26 08:08:18 gabriel authdaemond: authmysql: trying this module Jan 26 08:08:18 gabriel authdaemond: SQL query: SELECT email, password, "", 5000, 5000, "/home/vmail", "", "", "", "" FROM users WHERE email = "[email protected]" Jan 26 08:08:18 gabriel authdaemond: password matches successfully Jan 26 08:08:18 gabriel authdaemond: authmysql: sysusername=<null>, sysuserid=5000, sysgroupid=5000, homedir=/home/vmail, [email protected], fullname=<null>, maildir=<null>, quota=<null>, options=<null> Jan 26 08:08:18 gabriel authdaemond: authmysql: clearpasswd=<null>, passwd=Zhs6JTQ143Dk.

You must send an email to a new email account first before you can try to fetch mails. Maildir is created when the first email arrives.
