Postfix and user mailboxes



Hi all,

I've installed Postfix, Qpopper and getmail on my RH 6.2 workstation.
Sendmail was replaced by simply renaming its binaries and replacing
them with the postfix binaries . ( The server runs Qmail ( Maildir ) &
the stock pop3d daemon thar ships with wmail )

Qpopper was compiled with the # ./configure --enable-specialauth

I was testing getmail to retrieve mail from the POP3 server on the LAN .

The getmail logs suggest that authentication with the Lan server' s POP3 was
ok and that a ' message xxxxx.3027.mbox ' was retrieved was aborted because
/home/anurag/Mail/inbox was not a Maildir or mbox ( actually as i later realised
its the Sylpheed directory ) ..


How should I define user mailboxes in 'getmailrc' ? /var/spool/mail is empty .

PS on this machine there are just 2 users , root & myself .

Regards

Anurag
