Re: [magicmail-users] smtp auth

[Simon Wilson <simon@linuxmagic.com>]

Hello:

Is this a fresh QMR / vpopmail installation or did you just recompile 
vpopmail?

Is your ext_chk_passwd_prog a new setup? If so, I would recommend the usual -- 
check permissions, etc. What does your auth program return to magic-smtpd on 
success and on failure?
