POP3 Problems
Hi,

in GM i have created an account with the name 'frank' .On my server is an own pop3account for frank. for pop3 my server needs mydomainnamefrank as pop3user and a password. i have choosen the same passwords for frank in GM like for pop3. but i cant receive any messages.
GM is now configured for own pop3 accounts per user.

for a test i have configured GM to use a catch all account. in this case the eMail has delivered correctly franks account in GM. This means that GM CAN comunicat with my pop3server.

What sould i do to make GM possibe to login to my mailserver as the user: mydomainnamefrank with the same password like in GM???

Does anybody can help me please?

Thank in advance!

Franky

Thanks Alex, im not an cgi-freak like you.

I want to put the domainname BEFORE the username.
Username in GM = frank
Domain = mydomain.com

Pop3user = mydomaincomfrank
Pop3pass = GMpass

Can you give me the right snippet to insert into the script like suggested in p/94912 please?

Thanks Frank

Hi,

Sure! Same place as before, add:

$self->{USER} = 'mydomain' . $self->{USER} if ($self->{USER});

Cheers,

Alex

Hi Alex,

thank you - but it doesnt work.
In POP3.PM i have inserted your snipped:

# Accept both hash or hash references.
@_ or croak "POP3 ($$): You must supply a username, password and host.\n";
(ref $_[0] eq 'HASH') ? (%h = %{$_[0]}) : (%h = @_);
foreach my $k (keys %h) { $self->{uc $k} = $h{$k};)
$self->{USER} = 'mydomainnamecom' . $self->{USER} if ($self->{USER});

I want that the pop3username now is mydomainnamecomuser .

Is there maybee an error in you snippet. I cannot receive mails from my own pop3box.
!!!mydomainnamecom is only a sample in this post, in POP3.PM there is my real server!!!

For a Test i have removed the POP3.pm from my webspace. After login there comes NO ERRORMESSAGE for the reason that POP3.pm cannot found.

Maybee the POP3.pm is doesnt called during the loginprocess.
