Cant recive mail via mail programs.

[SSRU]

When I try to recive mail via mail programs I recive message that password incorrect.

But if I recive mail via webmail - all ok. (entered password & login similar).

How I can fix that error?

If you are using a common email client such as outlook express, one thing you can try is logging in your cpanel account and install the registry setup file for your particular client. You will be sure your client is configured correctly.

In cpanel, Look under 'email accounts / functions / configure mail clients'

No-no, I think that you dont understand me

Thats error appears even if I will configure my outlook manually.

P.S.: Thunderbird have a same error..

Same errors if I enable SSL/TLS in my mail program.

This may be going out on a limb but try regenerating your service certificates under 'Manage Service SSL Certificates'

Monitor your logs while you try connecting for further error messages.

Manage Service SSL Certificates - not helps.

Where I can find courier logs (this is default pop3 mail server?)

P.S.:
Outlook Error:

ERR Authentication failed (bad password?)' 0x800CCC90, 0x800CCC92

POP3 and IMAP logs can be found in:

/var/log/maillog
/var/log/messages

Wonder if your ISP is blocking since your webmail works fine. Shove exim on another port and try or test via telnet.

Someone understand something ?

It would have helped to know you are on a VPS. Disable popa3d and kill that process and restart pop

/etc/xinetd.d/popa3d and popa3ds

disable = yes

[SSRU]

1) disable = yes in popa3d & popa3ds
2) restarted xinetd.

now outlook can't connect to mail server.

[jayh38]

Disable xinet service completely and kill the processes. Sometimes you need to restart the vps to clear everything. Make sure xinet doesn't start back up.

jayh38, big thanks.

its work!

[jayh38]

Glad to hear it.

If this is your node, you can modify templates so you don't load xinet, php, mysql and other modules that shouldn't load in a vps prior to installing cpanel.
