Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot 1.0 POP3 login but no mail
I followed Geralds' instructions and dovecot returns "0 0" to stat cmd and "0 messages:" to list. So it thinks there are zero when there are over 40 in "%h/.maildir". I had not changed my config file before reboot so how can this happen? It worked prior to reboot and not after. I get no maillog errors, what next?
Thx.

Dovecot is installed on the hosted FC1 server I have, it was working fine until yesterday when they had to bounce the server. I can login fine from Outlook or connect telnet <hostname> 110. But even though I can see sendmail has received mail into my %h/.maildir (via webmail's user mail facility) when I log into dovecot via Outlook it does not retrieve any of it.
I tried from W2K "telnet <hostname> 110", it connects "+OK dovecot ready.", then I typed "LOGIN <username> <password>" and i get "-ERR Unknown command.". However with Outlook it logs in fine I see in maillog the result, no other errors in maillog. Cannot see what is wrong. Here are the important bits of my dovecot.conf, everything else is std. i.e. commented out
protocols = pop3 login = imap login = pop3 default_mail_env = maildir:%h/.maildir client_workarounds = outlook-idle mbox_locks = fcntl auth = default auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = pam auth_user = root auth_verbose = yes
Ideas on where to look next?
Thx
