Aloha, Using help from this list and Greg Lehey's book I have built a FreeBSD 6.2 server for a mail server and Installed Postfix from ports and tested it OK. I can see mail on the server in the expected box by telnet. I installed pop3 to capture the mail on another FreeBSD 4.11 box on another network using firebird just like a client would over the internet. The passwords are in the /etc.passwd for local users. Errors: > Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server mail.internetohana.net resopnded: Password supplied for alp@internetohana.org is incorrect. > > on the box istelf i get: telnet localhost 110 Connected to localhost.internetohana.org. OK > > >From the client command line on another network I get this using the servers name: telnet mail.internetohana.org Trying ....(etc) OK Qpopper. > telnet mail.hawaiidakine.com 110 mail.hawaiidakine.com 110: No address associated with hostname. > This is a virtual host under /usr/local/etc/postfix/virtual hawaiidakine.com anything info@hawaiidakine.com hdkmail The alp mail is a local usr for testing and hdkmail is the local user for hawaiidakine.com the virtual domain. Mozilla is the email reader I set up for fetching the info@hawaiidakine.com mail stored in the hdkmail box. I maybe have faulty postfix settings. Anybody know of a how to to set these virtual hosts up to respond properly? I have all of them in the local host under /var/mail Thanks.
