Probably your firewall is blocking any communication. > The same happens for imap. > > I have included "pop3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/uw-ipop3d" > and "imap stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/uw-imapd" in the > inetd.conf file and everything else appears to have been setup correctly. The configuration looks fine. I don't use the old version of uw-imap anymore (the one distributed through Cygwin), but I do use the latest (which compiles out of the box). There was no problem with using the old version, I still think its your firewall (Windows firewall). > The inetd.log file has just this to say on the problem: > someone wants pop3 > accept, ctrl 3 > + Closing from 22 > 2820 execl /usr/sbin/uw-ipop3d > 2820 reaped, status 0x3500 > someone wants imap > accept, ctrl 3 > + Closing from 22 > 2024 execl /usr/sbin/uw-imapd > 2024 reaped, status 0x3500 I don't get any log output from inetd, so this is strange (and TBird is opening and closing several connections all the time, imapd does send some output to syslogd). However, 0x3500 is probably Windows' error 53: $ net helpmsg 53 The network path was not found. Since I assume /usr/sbin/uw-imapd.exe does exist (no need to put the .exe), I have no idea what is wrong, perhaps "C:\Cygwin\bin" is not on your global (Windows) PATH and the required libraries (.dll) can't be found. -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
