However, I solved my own problem, but I don't know why. Enlightenment would be appreciated.
this part is ok: userdb: driver: static args: uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/spool/mail/vhosts/%d/%n
however this was the offending line: mail_location: mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
Q: why did commenting out the mail_location line make pop3 retrieval of the virtual host mailboxes work correctly?
Thanks,
Wendell
No, that made no difference.
In the log file, what are root, index, and inbox files? Are they top-level search directories, the actual inbox, or what?
The trailing '/' means mbox format, correct?
mbox: data=/var/spool/mail/user@example.com/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/user@example.com
mbox: root=/var/spool/mail/user@example.com/mail, index=/var/spool/mail/user@example.com/mail, inbox=/var/mail/user@example.com
