I recommend to mask/remove this package and replace it with p3scan (http://p3scan.sourceforge.net/). Reasons: 1. documentation of pop3vscan is incomplete ... it's a must to create minimum two additional subdirs /var/spool/pop3vscan/children /var/spool/pop3vscan/pop3vscannotify 2. functions return codes are inproperly/badly checked (if at all), and therefore e.g. if dir /var/spool/pop3vscan/pop3vscannotify doesn't exist, syslog contains really stupid/deceiving error: "Can't open mail notification template /etc/pop3vscan.mail_" 3. pop3vscan is dead/unmaintained, 4. p3scan is derived from pop3vscan and alive/maintained p3scan has been in portage for quite a long time now, while pop3vscan has been hard-masked. Closing as WONTFIX. |
