Hi, I'm a Debian newbie..I followed Falko's Perfect Server for Debian Etch and also installed ISPConfig over the weekend and all went well. At the moment all I want to accomplish is to retrieve and send mail from my windows xp pro box using outlook. When setting the account all 'tests' complete except the one. I'm getting 'unable to log on to the incoming mail server (POP3). Please verify settings in the Name, Password and E-mail fields'. tail -n100 /var/log/mail.log gave these results can someone please tell me what I need to fix please? Also I can telnet localhost 110 and 25 from debian box but not from xp box.

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