On a fresh install, I have been trying to set up qmail with vpopmail and the virtualdomain files seem to be fine, however trying to log in to pop3 does not work, neither it does with smtp. Any issues? http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-599060.html I'm always getting the following, no matter what: # telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.

And the guide could definitely cover all these details...
Solved. Please, be so kind to add a NOTICE to the vpopmail ebuild or to automatically configure somehow netqmail when emergin vpopmail. The manual is also missing this. In order for virtual domains authentication to work, the following has to be added: mail2 qmail # cat /var/qmail/control/conf-pop3d # Configuration file for qmail-pop3d # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/mail-mta/netqmail/files/conf-pop3d,v 1.1 2006/02/12 18:42:33 hansmi Exp $ # Stuff to run before tcpserver #QMAIL_TCPSERVER_PRE="" # Stuff to run before the authenticator #QMAIL_POP3_PREAUTH="" # Stuff to run after the user has authenticated successfully #QMAIL_POP3_POSTAUTH="" # this should contain the FQDN of your server # by default it pulls the value from qmail # which should be correct QMAIL_POP3_POP3HOST="$(<${QMAIL_CONTROLDIR}/me)" # If you want POP3 before SMTP, and you are using this POP3 daemon # uncomment the next two lines #QMAIL_TCPSERVER_PRE="${QMAIL_TCPSERVER_PRE} envdir /etc/relay-ctrl relay-ctrl-chdir" #QMAIL_POP3_POSTAUTH="${QMAIL_POP3_POSTAUTH} /usr/bin/relay-ctrl-allow" # This controls what password authentication tool POP3 uses # It must support DJB's checkpassword interface (http://cr.yp.to/checkpwd.html) #QMAIL_POP3_CHECKPASSWORD="/bin/checkpassword" # cmd5checkpw only validates passwords from /etc/poppasswd #QMAIL_POP3_CHECKPASSWORD="/bin/cmd5checkpw" QMAIL_POP3_CHECKPASSWORD="/var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw" # The name of the maildir in each user's directory. # This should be the same thing that defaultdelivery points to QMAIL_MAILDIR="./Maildir" mail2 qmail # cat /var/qmail/control/conf-smtpd # Configuration file for qmail-smtpd # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/mail-mta/netqmail/files/conf-smtpd,v 1.1 2006/02/12 18:42:33 hansmi Exp $ # Stuff to run before tcpserver #QMAIL_TCPSERVER_PRE="" # Stuff to run qmail-smtpd #QMAIL_SMTP_PRE="" # Stuff to after qmail-smtpd #QMAIL_SMTP_POST="" # this turns off the IDENT grab attempt on connecting TCPSERVER_OPTS="${TCPSERVER_OPTS} -R" # fixcrio inserts missing CRs at the ends of lines.

Please give diffs, thanks.
Created attachment 133599 [details, diff] conf-pop3d.diff Patch to allow the correct use of vpopmail virtualdomains. Allows proper authentication using POP3.
Created attachment 133600 [details, diff] conf-smtpd.diff Patch to allow the correct use of vpopmail virtualdomains. Allows proper authentication using SMTP.
Handing over to Benedikt Böhm (hollow) as it's vpopmail related.
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/qmail-howto.xml#doc_chap5_pre1 "(Uncomment the SMTP-AUTH variables and set QMAIL_SMTP_CHECKPASSWORD to /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw)"
It's still missing the pop3 one. Notice that a user might not want to use courier-imap to handle pop3. Adding a note about it wouldn't harm anyone.
