Hello guys
I am having problem of pop3 with my mail server I am using postfix-2.3.3
and Dovecot v1.0.7 when i telnet localhost or xyz.net i get following
output
[root at dalvis ~]# telnet mail.xyz.net 110
Trying 192.168.12.14...
Connected to mail.xyz.net (192.168.12.14).
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Dovecot ready.
user johne at xyz.net
+OK
pass 768tidzx
-ERR Authentication failed.
Connection closed by foreign host.
and my maillog shows
Jun 21 19:25:20 localhost dovecot: pop3-login: Aborted login:
user=<johne at xyz.net>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:192.168.12.14,
lip=::ffff:192.168.12.14, secured
my dovecot.conf is as follow:-
# Remove pop3 things if you don't want them
protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s
# It's nice to have separate log files for Dovecot. You could do this
# by changing syslog configuration also, but this is easier.
log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log
info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log
# Disable SSL for now.
ssl_disable = yes
disable_plaintext_auth = no
# We're using Maildir format
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir
# If you're using POP3, you'll need this:
pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
# Optimizations:
dotlock_use_excl=yes
maildir_copy_with_hardlinks=yes
# Authentication configuration:
auth_verbose = yes
auth default {
mechanisms = plain
passdb passwd-file {
args = /etc/dovecot/passwd
}
userdb static {
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/mail/vmail/%d/%u
}
}
I shall highly appreciate if anyone shall have a look at it and
let me know what i am doing wrong.
Thank you
Best regards.
