Let me start off by saying how great most of the tutorials on 'HowtoFAorge' are, great work guys. Ok I have followed the Debian Sarge tutorial to the 'T' a few times now and cannot ever seem to log in using pop3 or pop3s, I have not tired IMAP as yet. I am using DynDNS to give my server a static hostname ( wizzardry.ath.cx), my server is internal geting it's IP from a dlink router and is using 192.168.0.100. All other modules in the server work Apache, bind, FTP, I can send and recieve mail internally using a virtual user and domain, here is a quick output of this: Code: wizzardry:~# telnet wizzardry.ath.cx 25 Trying 68.146.194.17...

I believe I have done everything right and have installed Debian systems a few times now, actually back from before woody, woody, and now sarge. I have only had this problem with sarge, if anybody can possibly tell me what may be wrong I would love to get this finished and put this behind me, for it's driving me crazy. Oh yes my mysql is using the ENCRYPT mode for password, but there is no log in my mysql err or log fikles, which leads me to believe something is wrong with my mysql authentication, but I am using authpam now. and help is appreciated. sorry for the post length I just wanted to give a good bacjground of what I have done. regards, ru4r34l
well I decided to give it one more try, paying a little more attention to the fine details and it seems my issues were a simple typo. Actually I could not find or repeat my error but re-configuring the mail system by hand and some sane checking along the way has made my pop3 and pop3s daemons runing clean. Thanks for the response Falko, and again very nice and insightfull tutorials regards, ru4r34l
