I have qpopper 4.0.5 running from inetd on FBSD 4.11. I start it thus: /usr/local/libexec/qpopper When I connect from my Mac to check my mail, I see the following in / var/log/messages: Jun 19 19:45:18 moe qpopper[199]: charles at 192.168.254.3 (192.168.254.3): -ERR [SYS/TMP] POP authentication DB not abailable (user charles): No such file or directory (2) Anyone have any ideas what's wrong?
