hello, I just installed Postfix and Courier. Postfix can receive messages (I can monitor from Webmin GUI) but when I try login inside or outside the network, it asks username and password then -ERR login failed. I try logging in with real accounts. What can be wrong. SMTP working okay but POP3 wont let me in.. I tried "telnet localhost pop3" or "telnet xx.xxx.xxx.xx 110" and both giving the same error. Thanks for helping
popa3d after a hard try, installing/removing courier 100 times, I installed popa3d and all was solved all of a sudden.. Why it is not told in forums and websites instead of writing millions of pages about courier.. bahadir
i have the same problem. I followed this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-centos5.1 courier and imap responses in telnet but not auth :/
Having the same issue with courier pop3 Hi! I have the same issue with loging to pop3 on courier (have ispconfig installed, postfix and courier). I can see in webmin that mail is arriving in the Maildir in the specified account, but neather /mailuser, nor /webmail can log in. In both cases the same error: mail.log: Apr 17 19:17:11 SERVER courierpop3login: Connection, ip=[::ffff:X.Y.Z.D] Apr 17 19:17:11 SERVER courierpop3login: LOGIN FAILED, [email protected], ip=[::ffff:X.Y.Z.D] Apr 17 19:17:16 SERVER courierpop3login: Disconnected, ip=[::ffff:X.Y.Z.D], Can you help me? Have tried loging in with e-mail and username as username, but nothing done.
[email protected] is the wrong username. It must be something like web1_user. If it still doesn't work, please post the error messages again.
I was researching through couriers files and found that in authmysqlrc (located in /etc/courier/), the file is left intend from my last configuration(other then ispconfig), and think that this is what is wrong about loging error(i have tried also with web1_USER, but no effect): MYSQL_SERVER localhost MYSQL_USERNAME mail_admin MYSQL_PASSWORD mail_pass MYSQL_PORT 3306 MYSQL_DATABASE mail MYSQL_USER_TABLE users MYSQL_CRYPT_PWFIELD password #MYSQL_CLEAR_PWFIELD password MYSQL_UID_FIELD 5000 MYSQL_GID_FIELD 5000 MYSQL_LOGIN_FIELD email MYSQL_HOME_FIELD "/home/vmail" MYSQL_MAILDIR_FIELD CONCAT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',-1),'/',SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',1),'/') #MYSQL_NAME_FIELD MYSQL_QUOTA_FIELD quota This file tells courier to use other database (virtualmin created, before I removed it, but courier conf. unfortunately left untouched after ispconfig installation) Can you help me, what should be the content of this file for ispconfig?
