I get dovecot to work and answer when telnet to 110 both local and from
another computer.
But it shows nothing in the log files except it's running.
Here's the log and other info:
/var/log/maillog:
Jan 25 16:49:32 widgeteye dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.0.9 starting up (core
dumps disabled)
dovecot --version 2.0.9
dovecot -n output

passdb {

driver = passwd-file
}
protocols = pop3
service pop3-login {
inet_listener pop3 {
port = 110
}
}
ssl = no
userdb {
args = username_format=%u /usr/local/etc/dovecot/passwd.dovecot
driver = passwd-file
}
When I try get mail from my machine from another computer I get nothing
What's up?
Thanks

The first says it works, the second says it doesn't. It appears you killed the telnet session as soon as the Dovecot POP daemon responded. If you had attempted to login and read a message, the responses would have helped both you, and us, in troubleshooting your problem. At this point you've not provided us enough information to do anything but guess and speculate. Most people's time is more valuable than that. So, my recommendation is to test more thoroughly via telnet and copy/paste any errors. Use this as a guide: http://www.anta.net/misc/telnet-troubleshooting/pop.shtml -- Stan

With doveadm log find you'll get the actual log files. HTH -- Joseba Torre. Vicegerencia de TICs, ?rea de Explotaci?n
