This first came to our attention by a client of ours who said he had to reconnect after every single message to get all his emails. He only has this problem with our service. The exact same client setup (Nokia N95 8Gb) does pop all the messages at another provider.

2 days ago we finally got our N95 8Gb's in, so we decided to test it out for ourselves.

This is what /var/log/maillog says:

Code:
Mar 16 19:55:23 ermis vm-pop3d[1226]: User '[email protected]' logged in from 12.34.56.78, nmsgs=18

Only 1 message makes it across.

Moving the pop from the daemon itself to inetd doesn't make any difference. Still only 1 message at a time.
 
I don't think it's a go around. Dovecot has been tested and is known to work without a problem. So I think many of us here think of it as a fix to the old system (vm-pop3).
 
If I have a problem with apache do you say "install IIS"? So, I'd like to get this vm-pop3d issue worked out, not getting something else.
 
I would suggest that the problem is with the device not the server. I have a treo that downloads all the mail with no problem.

Or perhaps the device and the server are at fault. If the problem is with vm-pop3d then you should probably take it up with them since DA does not write the vm-pop3d software nor does DA require vm-pop3d to function.
