I used the Desktop Guide on gentoo.org and set up postfix and courier-imap along with squirrelmail. Web mail works with IMAP folders. How do I get pop3 working?
the /etc/courier-imap/pop3d file refers to /usr/sbin/pop3d which does not exist.
courier-pop3d replies:
AUTHFAILURE
and ipop3d replies:
+OK POP3 gen2.phlef.net v2001.78 server ready
yet pop3 access is not working...
after a while ipop3d pops out:
-ERR Autologout; idle for too long
How do I enable pop3 access to my mail server?
Thanks in advance,
Phlef

First, I'd like to say that I haven't tried my courier-imap out as far as the pop3 support goes, but...

Have you tried searching for the pop3d file?
Code:
whereis pop3d


It usually works for me. :)

I don't have my box with me, but as far as I can see on the courier-imap .tar.gz build, the pop3d server builds nicely along with the imap-side of the package.
Maybe you should try the source file instead?

Ryan.

:? Well... Reinstalled w/ 1.3b and now courier-imap installed a startup script for courier-pop3d that was in /etc/init.d/ ... dunno what the quirk was w/ the original 1.3-test.tbz2 but it works now... :twisted:
