I've not been able to get qpopper to do APOP for several releases... back to the 2.xx version. I've documented the problems and sent them to qualcomm, but no response. I compile with the correct flags, checked directory and file permissions, read (and re-read) their README file, to no avail. Here are the symptoms: -- popauth will not -init, not unless I touch the pop.auth.dir and pop.auth.pag files, otherwise it croaks -- popauth will segfault, afterward, when trying to add a user -- Even worse, if I try to back up and start over (yes, popauth is u+s to "pop"), I get this: $ ./popauth -init Really initialize POP authentication DB? y ./popauth: error setting ownership of POP authentication DB: No such file or directory and I find that the *.dir *.pag files have been obliterated, and it refuses to correct them. The permissions on /usr/local/etc/pop are all correct (as is /usr/local/etc/pop/pop.auth, which was specified on the configure line). This is very frustrating, and I find it hard to believe that I'm the only one having this problem. That or people just don't use APOP :) Thanks in advance....
