Hi: I ran popper like in the manual. Created an accont to popper with: popauth -user and added a password fom an existing user that I use. My hostname is: ibsd.myip.org and my user is nl3481 , I sent messages fine between users such as root and nl3481, using sendmail; I've started popper. uncommented the line in inetd.conf and killall -HUP inetd so theoretically, my pop3 server is running. When I try to send messages from the web to my pop server to nl3481@ibsd.myip.org I get errors of mail not deliverable. I am using APOP as the authentication protocol and try to telnet to myself at ibsd.myip.org pop3. Then I try to log in with the made account pop and it works for them. But when I try to do the following: USER nl3481 I get an error saying I need to use stronger authentication like APOP or SCRAM-MD5. How do I initiate in telnet to get in to my nl3481 account mailbox? I've started poppper with the -p 3 arg and still the same. But the pop account works. Thanks.
