Hello,
I would like everyone on this list to buy 10 copies of SLES each so that I get a Christmas bonus this year. The guy who posted the original POP/postfix question apparantly doesn't know much about mail servers and didn't include any information in his post that would allow someone to help him (logs, postconf, inetd.conf or xinetd.conf...does he know which one he is running?).
Yes I know something about mail server because Postfix is now running but it is not my speciality. There are people yhat know more about e-mail server than I and that's why I send my question to the list, not to launch a debate about "should I buy Email server III or not": it looks too muck like MS policy. If you want me to send you all my logs and config files, OK, just tell me which ones. I am running inetd.conf if you want to know. I did not have time yet to learn xinetd (too much time spent trying to find a manual about cyrus-imap). I solved my problem with mu inability to read my Mailbox. I just changed START_CYRUS="yes" to START_CYRUS="no" in /etc/rc.config because it was the Cyrus implementation that causes problems of password reading (which problem I don't know) even if I typed rccyrus stop. I found where the problem was after making a telnet 110. Thanks again for any good manual (I am not a Nobel laureate bur I read Perl/ipchains/Mysql/Tk/ + the rest ....) Sorry I don't have enough pocket money to buy Email server III. Not easy to convince a majority of MS or Apple users to try Linux when you are the only person to know something (even little) about servers configuration. Alain There's
nothing wrong with that--he could be a Nobel laureate in physics for all I know--but that's who products like the email server III are aimed at.
P.S. Incedently, I do own every version of SuSE professional since 7.0, and I will continue to buy them.
Thank you.
