Hi All

 

 

I am experiencing a mail download problem with dovecot’s pop3 protocol. We use outlook XP 2002 mail clients and I have setup a mail system with pop accounts on a Fedora 2 installation using dovecot.

 

Some of the clients download email fine but others do not download email and also do not give any error messages. I have enabled the “verbose” options in the /etc/dovecot.conf and all the logged messages appear the same for those who get email and for those who don’t. I listed the /var/spool/mail directory and can see mail in the accounts who do not seem to download. We are running an 80 – 90 user system.

 

I have even tried IMAP on the clients with no success. There is nothing viable in the system log.

 

I would appreciate it if you could help.

 

Thank you

 

Kind regards,

 

Eddie
