im using posfix for my smtp server.. then i choose ldap - courier-imap for my pop3/imap server and i manage to install the 2 server .. as we know courier-imap is a maildir..right im having a problem to activate the maildir... any idea on how to enable the postfix to received maildir mail.. and what is the basic config.. im running ldap/ courier-imap.. thanks.
 
owedark,
To have postfix deliver to Maildir mailboxes you need to edit your main.cf file to include the following parameter:
Code:
home_mailbox = Maildir/
It is important to have the trailing slash otherwise you will end up with regular mbox format mailboxes in your $HOME/Maildir file not maildir directories.

Hope that helps.
 
thank's for reply.. i really appreciate.. actually i already do that.. but the problem my pop3 server is failed to authenticate the user.. im using ldap/courier-imap..
