Is there a patch out there that can support external paths? (i.e. domain:<server>:<port>)? So instead of popa3d retrieving mail from a local virtual server, it goes for another pop server (by relaying commands coming from and contents going to the client). Any clarifications appreciated. Ed CC 2008-05-15T09:47:48 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/424 Hi, I'm moving from shared web-hosting to VPS where I'm setting up popa3d. I want to make the move as seamless for mail users as possible. The shared hosting uses cPanel software with builtin POP3 server, there full email address serves as POP3 login, there is also a note: | If your e-mail client has trouble using a < at > sign in the login, | you can use +, :, or % sign instead. The users have different localparts of POPable mailboxes, so I needn't virtual domains in popa3d. It's more convenient without virtual domains because of the KISS principle and because users can change their passwords if I specify /usr/bin/passwd as login shell. I want users to be able to continie to use full email addresses as POP3 logins, popa3d to just ignore domains in logins and to use localpart as the username. I wrote and tested a patch http://lena.kiev.ua/popa3d-1.0.2-nonvirtual.diff It seems to work OK. I also include the same patch below.

I'm using the popa3d-1.0.2-1mdv2007.0 package, the server is UP and listen on 110/tcp port, the postfix it's working and delivering messages on /var/spool/mail/user as well. This is the problem: $ telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to orochimaru (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. +OK user tiagocruz +OK pass 123456 -ERR Connection closed by foreign host. And this is the error on log: Jul 18 00:17:36 orochimaru popa3d[12995]: Authentication passed for tiagocruz -- [127.0.0.1] Jul 18 00:17:36 orochimaru popa3d[12995]: Failed or refused to load /var/spool/mail/tiagocruz I don't have Idea of how can I solve this problem... someone can help me? Thanks a lot! Tiago Cruz 2007-07-27T22:42:26 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/416 Hello everyone I am going to just start off and say I am rather new to linux and this is truly my last resort. I have looked everywhere and tried quite a bit before asking for help and I appreciate any that you all can provide. I have been trying for a couple days now to successfully setup this popa3d server to receive emails. I am using the basic out of the box openwall configurations and I have modified the postfix main.cf file the best I can and created a test user. I am able to locally connect and do a STAT w/ no problem. I dont know if this is a routing issue or a configuration within the postfix config files or not. I have set my router to forward the traffic on port 110 that comes in on my dynamic dns that is managed by my router to the pop server. I have forwarded both udp and tcp traffic through iptables. iptables -t nat -A prerouting_rule -i $WAN -p tcp --dport 110 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.153 iptables -A forwarding_rule -i $WAN -p tcp --dport 110 -d 192.168.1.153 -j ACCEPT an matt mix 2007-05-03T06:49:37 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/411 I am trying to install popa3d on a linux Fedora4 new installation and I am getting the following error: undefined reference to `crypt' I see in the Makefile file that it needs glibc installed, and I confirmed that it is.

John Von Essen 2006-01-16T17:05:38 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/388 Hi! This may well be in some other contrib patch, but since I couldn't find a link to the contrib directory, here it is. It is a patch that adds the username (or mailbox, which should be the same most of the time) to all syslog messages that popa3d writes. It is very useful for detecting users that misspell usernames, or use incorrect case when typing the username. Example: Sep 15 12:22:14 mail01 popa3d[22645]: Authentication failed for UNKNOWN USER Vjen Sep 15 12:22:14 mail01 popa3d[22659]: Authentication passed for sea0593a Sep 15 12:22:14 mail01 popa3d[22659]: 25 messages (1585238 bytes) loaded for se0593a Sep 15 12:22:14 mail01 popa3d[22659]: 0 (0) deleted, 25 (1585238) left for se0593a Sep 15 12:25:17 mail01 popa3d[24468]: Authentication passed for se1161d Sep 15 12:25:17 mail01 popa3d[24468]: 1 message (12918 bytes) loaded for se1161d Sep 15 12:25:18 mail01 popa3d[24468]: 1 (12918) deleted, 0 (0) left for se1161d popa3d unpatched would have given the following: Sep 15 12:22:14 mail01 popa3 Fredrik Björk 2005-09-15T10:39:33 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/373 I am running RH ES v4 and I have installed the RPM of popa3d. I can connect via command line and see messages in my list, and read them . . . but I'm trying to get my Thunderbird client on another machine to connect. I have created the account in t-bird's account list, it prompts me for a password, then gives a popup saying "server says invlaid login." I can send via t-bird, I'm using Postfix on the server so I know its actually connecting to the machine. And Postfix processes incoming emails into the mailbox, but T-bird just can't get them. Any help, or pointing to documentation, would be appreciated. I have relatively little Unix experience and I'm trying to make a point about getting our servers off Windows, this doesn't help! Thanks . . . Jim Mirick 2005-08-29T14:46:14 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/370 Since some clients want capabilities to be described (e.g. KMail complains that it can't determine UIDL support), I implemented the "CAPA" command as per RFC 2449. The capabilities set also includes "pass" (it's identical to NGPopper's). See http://www.acm.jhu.edu/~trisk/popa3d-1.0-capa.diff -Trisk N.Cat 2005-08-26T01:40:06 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/368 I just got a new VPS account and it came configured with popa3d. What is this? How do I add users and generally configure it ? Does it integrate with Webmin? If this is not reasonably full featured POP3 server, is there another that someone would care to recommend? Dilton McGowan II 2005-07-04T00:34:19 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/363 Hello list, I have a dilemma with some clients that are messing around with settings on MS email clients. All email clients have the option to "Leave messages on server", which is all find and dandy, but I would like to be able to disable this function, preferably on the server side. It's painful to remove a few thousand e-mails on Manday after a long weekend. Is it possible to accomplish this and if yes, how would I go about it? Thank you, ~andrew. Nagy Ondrash 2005-06-22T01:55:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/359 Hi, For those few on the announcement list who don't know this yet, popa3d is a tiny POP3 daemon which attempts to be extremely secure, reliable, RFC compliant, and fast (in that order). Now, to the news: I've released popa3d 1.0. This means that I consider popa3d to be mature enough to enter its 1.x era. The changes since version 0.6.4.1 released almost a year ago are minimal. This means that the code has been well tested and no new bugs are introduced with this minor update (or at least I hope so). popa3d is available off its homepage at: http://www.openwall.com/popa3d/ As usual, there're detached PGP signatures for the tarballs. The change log is available at: http://www.openwall.com/popa3d/CHANGES.shtml Solar Designer 2005-05-28T02:20:19 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/354 Hello, I've been hacking around in the popa3d code trying to figure out how it works so that I might be able to get it to log/record the user's IP address for use with pop-before-send SMTP access control. I just discovered that the whole "channel" construct is pulling user session data from a pipe rather than a socket as I was expecting when running under xinetd. As far as I can tell standalone mode uses a regular listening socket and obtaining the IP address of the user from the sockaddr structs is a simple matter in that mode. But I'm at a loss for what to do under xinetd as I really don't understand how xinetd handles connections and such. Is there anyone who might be able to lend a little guidance here? I'm specifically poking around in the do_pop_session(0 function of pop_root.c.

I have popa3d installed on my linux host for a long time, it has been working very well, but I'm trying to use a .forward file in my user directory like this: /home/user/.forward The file contains only another email address, as a test... And the email doesn't get forwarded, eventually I would like to pipe it to a script using "|/path/to/script.sh"... Does popa3d supports .forward files? Is there a way to activate it, configure it, or verify what happens with the server when the email is received?

I've been trying to get it to work on an identical RH9 machine that doesn't seem to be working. It compiles fine and executes well enough, and I see port 110 open up when it becomes activated. yet when Outlook tries to connect to it to pop mail, Outlook returns the error message: Task 'mail.domain.com - Sending and Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC0F) : 'The connection to the server was interrupted. If this problem continues, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).' This was happening with 0.6.3 and now with the most current 0.6.4.1 as well. There is no firewall between the two machines. The server is definitely reachable. There is no antivirus software or any of the other "desktop software" things people generally associate with this particular Outlook error code. I Googled it and come back with half a dozen other people with a similar error, but most of them were not in English and I couldn't g Sean Kelly 2005-01-28T07:19:33 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.popa3d.user/344 Would the list prefer a text-only patch, or is a gzipped copy acceptable attached to the email?

I really don't know if it's a bug but I've installed popa3d 0.6.4.1 with PAM support (AUTH_PAM) and it's authenticating two passwords if they are equal up to 8th character. For example: Real password: 1234567890 12345678 is authenticated. 12345678itsafeature? is authenticated... and so on.
