Hi, I'am using Ubuntu Server, and I can't get Dovecot working. Please give me a clue if you can. Ok, my gide to configuration was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dovecot I tryed to "telnet mydomain.com 110", but the authentication fails, give this error: -ERR Authentication failed. Besides this, I can't "telnet mydomain.com 110" outside my localhost My mail.log tells this: Oct 5 19:25:29 mydomain dovecot: Killed with signal 15 Oct 5 19:25:29 mydomain dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.10 starting up Oct 5 19:29:33 mydomain dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: user=<andre at mydomain.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured What's wrong in here? Best regards, Andre.
