dear friends, i allready asked once, but i am afraid, my mail got lost somewhere...?
so here again: i am trying to set up cucipop on a newly installed potato system. only trouble is, it dosent't like to run in APOP-mode, which would be very important here. the makevpopdb program complains about "makedb2: Can't create /etc/mail/vpop.db" and if compiled from source it says it even dosen't know about db2... all this behaviour has been documented in some quite old bug-reports, but i cant find any solution to it. can someone please just give a statemant on the status or tell me how to work around the problem? thanks my system: mars 2.2.17 #1 Sun Jun 25 09:24:41 EST 2000 i586 unknown Package: cucipop Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: non-free/net Installed-Size: 199 Maintainer: Debian QA Group <debian-qa@lists.debian.org> Version: 1.31-13 Provides: pop3-server Depends: netbase, libc6 (>= 2.1), libpam0g Conflicts: pop3-server, qpopper Conffiles: /etc/init.d/cucipop e304a9a6f13d6ff1a6f208a038f236b8 /etc/pam.d/cucipop 4b2506a7954690dad5e15341e0ef47f9 Description: Cubic Circle's POP3 daemon A fast, robust implementation of the RFC1939 POP3 protocol, It does not use temporary files, it works reliably over NFS, and it includes an option to defeat "leave mail on server" clients.
