qmail pop3 problem
 

Hi everyone,

I set up a pop account from omail (i have a virtual server hosting).

the pop3 email adress is netscopn@netscop.net so I sent an email to this adress (from webmin) and the content of the email has been added to the file /home/netscopn/Mailbox

so the email has been stored. And I can read it from the usermin interface but when I access by outlook to my server using the informations:

login: netscopn@netscop.net
paswd: the password

outlook says there is no message.

why outlook don't find the stored message? (the pop server running on my server is the one of qmail)

how should I procced please?

Nb: I am using qmail as a delivery software.

Thanks for you help :)

I've seen Outlook do some weird things with non-Exchange servers. If you were to install Thunderbird, does it work then? If not, if you were to telnet to your mail server and try a pop3 conversation that way, does it work? Something like this should work:

If any of those lines returns an error, chances are thats where the fault is.
