Hello, I had the error with MD5 (. Re: "password incorrect" error - MD5 ) so I decided to keep perl 5.6 and reinstall neomail. It fixed the problem. . . Now I get this new problem: NEOMAIL ERROR "Can't create your user directory!" I noticed one similar error to this in the sourceforge neomail list; but, there wasn't a proposed fix to the problem. It may be a simple config problem with the mail server; however, I have used the same config file from the last time it worked. ------------------------------------------------------------ The mail directory is /var/spool/mail/[username] I use sendmail and have added Tapache as a trusted user. --------------------------------------------------- This is a typical user in /var/spool/mail -rw-rw---- 1 spotterf spotterf 449 Nov 7 11:43 spotterf Are my permissions correct? ____________________________________- Here is a portion of the neomail.conf file: # hashedmailspools - Set this to 'yes' if your mail spool directory is set up # like /var/spool/mail/u/s/username. Most default # sendmail installs aren't set up this way, you'll know # if you need it. $hashedmailspools = 'no'; # scripturl - The location (relative to ServerRoot) of the CGI script, used in some # error messages to provide a link back to the login page $scripturl = '/cgi-bin/neomail.pl'; # prefsurl - This is the location (relative to ServerRoot) of the user setup # and address book script. $prefsurl = '/cgi-bin/neomail-prefs.pl'; # homedirspools - Set this to 'yes' if you're using qmail, and set the next # variable to the filename of the mail spool in their # directories. Appropriate defaults have been supplied. $homedirspools = 'no'; $homedirspoolname = 'Mailbox'; # homedirfolders - Set this to 'yes' if you'd like to use ~user/mail/ for your # folders, enabling compatibility with the PINE MUA. Note that # when enabled, users will have to have a ~user/mail directory # already, NeoMail doesn't create it. Best to add a mail # directory in /etc/skel (or equivalent) in that case. $homedirfolders = 'yes'; ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anyone have an idea as to what may be wrong with my set-up?
