Different Pop User names
Hello,

i have istalled Mail 1.15 and its working great. I Have also translated the templates to german and it works well.

The only thing is that the incoming mails arenīt collected. The Thing is that our Mailserver create the usernames as follow domainname+username so the login Process wont work.
Is there any solution? Please let me know

Are you using a catchall account or individual pops? If it's a catchall, then you need to set your POP Login in Configure->Email Handling to 'domain+user'.

If it's individual pops, then it's a little more tricky. You need to edit Webmail.pm, subroutine get_pop (line 329) and replace:

user => $USER->{'userid'},

with:

user => 'domainname+' . $USER->{'userid'},

Hope that helps,

Alex

hello Alex,

this solution dont Work
user => 'domainname+' . $USER->{'userid'},

o.k once again for example the username in Mail PRG is 'user' and the Domain is 'domain'. So the Mailserver wants the following 'domainuser'.

so what can i do.

Thanks
Dierk

Ok, I misunderstood. That should be

user => 'domainname' + $USER->{'userid'}

Cheers,

You did replace 'domainname' with your domain right? You should turn on Debug in Webmail.pm (set $DEBUG = 1), and then look at your error log, you should see what the program sent to your mail server.

You definately want the '.' not the '+'. Turn $DEBUG = 1 on in your Webmail.pm and watch the error log to see what the error is.

Hi,

This will be your servers error log, and will depend on how you configured Apache. If you email me telnet info I can take a look for you.

Cheers,
