* [gentoo-dev] Qmail pop server user problem... No maildir?

Ok, trying to nail this thing down. My smtp server works, and I can
connect with my pop server, but it won't let me log in. Gives me a "-ERR
this user has no $HOME/Maildir" with any login attempt, be it with a
valid user/pass or not. It's using the checkpassword app for the
password stuff... Does it have something to do with PAM? Any ideas?
Would really appreciate any help :)

Thanks
-Clay

Heh yeah, I have... It gives me that error regardless of whether the
user even exists...

Does it use a different home? The one listed in passwd is /home/user,
does it use /var/qmail/users/ or something?
