Re: [webmin-l] FTP idle timeouts

Hi,=20
Your POP server is probably hard-coded to always read mail from /var/mail=
/USERNAME , and so won't pick up mail from ~/Maildir . The only solution =
is to install a POP server like Dovecot which can be configured to use a =
Maildir format directory..

Hi Jamie,
I applied this and now the mail does in fact go to the proper place in=20
the home directory but now POP isn't picking it up, not sure how pop=20
gets directed. I'm sending this from usermin.
