[gentoo-user] courier-pop3d problem

[dexter]

Hello

I have a strange problem with curier-pop3d service
I can connect to server, then I input username and password - I'm 
granted access, I receive

+OK logged in.

When I want to do LIST command, I get

+OK POP3 clients that break here, they violate STD53.

I'm unable to list any messages with putty or receive any mail with 
Thunderbird 2.0
I'm quite confused - few weeks ago it worked like a charm.

Hi

Debuging was completly disabled - after enabling debuging I was quite 
surprised to find, that upgrading courier-imap with emerge, changed my 
email server configuration, folder containing user mail was changed, and 
location of directive defining it was moved to other file.
Before upgrade  - MYSQL_MAILDIR_FIELD    Maildir - was defined in 
/etc/courier/authlib/authmysqlrc
After upgrade my /etc/courier-imap/pop3d-ssl configuration has changed 
(the following was added):
# Hardwire a value for ${MAILDIR}
MAILDIR=.maildir
MAILDIRPATH=.maildir

The curios thing is, that only /etc/courier-imap/pop3d-ssl was affected, 
/etc/courier-imap/pop3d was untouched - so unencrypted mail was working.

Problem is currently solved - but I wonder, did I really miss such a 
thing doing etc-update ? It didn't happen before - I think :)
