Helloo I have followed all the steps exactly as in: " http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-roundcube-ubuntu-6.06 " but i still have a problem. I cannot log on with Outlook on the mail adress.It gives me the following error: "log onto incoming mail POP3 failed " and mail dir is has not been created in /home/vmail. CAn anyone help me with this? Thanks all.
You must send an email first to a new account before you can fetch mails. Maildir is created when the first email arrives.
i have sent an email at the adress but ubfortunately it gives me the same error asking me an user name and password, and down here you have my log.
Is domain.net listed either in the domains table or in the mydestination line in /etc/postfix/main.cf?
yes it was listed only in domains table in mail database main.cf # See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name.
