Hello, I have Dovecot 1.0.beta8 on FC5.[root@topaz orlowscy.com] # dovecot -n log_path: /var/log/dovecot protocols: pop3 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login default_mail_env: mbox:/tmp:INBOX:/var/spool/vmail/%d/%n:INDEX=MEMORY mail_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir: /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 auth default: verbose: yes passdb: driver: pam passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /etc/mail/passwd-dovecot userdb: driver: passwd userdb: driver: static args: uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/spool/vmail/%d/%n

I can send and receive email by exim SMTP server. I would like to use dovecot as pop3 only server. I can send and .email and I see them delivered to /var/spool/vmail/virtualdomain/ directories. They are own by vmail user created for dovecot. Dovecot is able to authenticate but is not retrieving any emails.
