I am sorry, I missed important info, here it is: dovecot 0.99.11 default_mail_env = mbox:/home/%n/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%n no virtual support
Note: I use %n because it was supposed to strip the domain part, but it seems not to be working. # %n - user part in user@domain, same as %u if there's no domain
**************examples:**********
telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. +OK dovecot ready. user xyz +OK pass xyz +OK Logged in. list +OK 24 messages: 1 97887 2 37048 . .

Thanks for your comments,
Erick.

Hi, Im using dovecot version 0.99.11 and I'm facing a situation with one pop3 client.
This is a fax application (faxmaker for windows) written by a third party that tries to login to the dovecot as USER username@domain. When the application tries to login that way, my dovecot rejects the auth. All the other pop3 clients (outlook, eudora,etc) in the system log in correctly because they do just USER username.
The only failures related to the login (and I have debug enabled in dovecot) are: Sep 15 15:17:57 mail pop3-login: Aborted login [ipaddress]
How ca I tell dovecot to ignore the domain part for that user? I am not using virtual support.
Thanks,
