Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2018-11-14T10:45:49+00:00

Creating Extra SMTP Services In VPOP3 Enterprise (not VPOP3 Basic) you can create multiple SMTP services. This can be useful if you want VPOP3 to listen on different ports and/or have different settings. There are two ways of doing this. Have a single SMTP service listening on multiple ports or IP addresses

Installation Errors This page lists some errors which may occur during installation and the solution. In general, do NOT 'ignore' any errors unless we tell you to. If you have to retry an installation, when it is an upgrade from versions 1 - 4 going to version 5 or later, then make sure you have told the installer to install the database. Sometimes a partial installation will make the installer think that the database is already installed.

Sending mail from different email addresses or domains

Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2018-11-14T10:45:49+00:00

Sending mail from different email addresses or domains VPOP3 does not (by default) place any restrictions on which email addresses or domains you can send mail from. However, there may be external restrictions on which email addresses/domains you can send from. For instance, if you send mail through your ISP's mail server, they may only allow you to send mail from specific addresses, or the domain you send mail from may have a sender policy defined, such as

Handling mail for multiple incoming domains VPOP3 can easily handle mail for several incoming domains. Exactly how you do it depends on the exact situation. All domains are 'aliases' If the domains are aliases of each other, for instance, you have 'mycompany.com' and 'mycompany.org', both of which are the same, so each address at mycompany.com also exists at mycompany.org, and the emails go to the same people regardless of which domain is used, then you simply configure the domains in the ma…

Out of Disk Space When Sending Mail

Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2018-11-14T10:45:49+00:00

Out of Disk Space When Sending Mail The first thing you should do is check that there is enough free disk space on the disk where VPOP3 is installed. VPOP3 requires a certain amount of free space before it will allow new messages to be sent, so the disk might not be totally full, but VPOP3 will still report that there is insufficient disk space when you try to send a new message. This buffer zone is designed to help prevent the disk totally filling up, which can cause lots of bigger problems!

This can be used with VPOP3 for having a near-realtime backup of your settings & messages. To use the replication, you need to have a file share which is accessible from both PCs. The thing to watch out for is that the PostgreSQL services may be running as a different user from the currently logged in user, so make sure that the user(s) which the PostgreSQL servi…

Socket Error 10048 - Specified Address Already in Use This error only normally occurs during VPOP3 startup. It occurs if some other software running on the same machine as VPOP3 is using one of the ports that VPOP3 is already using. This could be a proxy like WinGate, WinProxy or anti-virus software that acts as a proxy, an LDAP server (e.g. Active Directory) or another mail server program (e.g. Exchange Server).

This is often caused by anti-virus software or Internet security/firewall on the VPOP3 machine but it could be any of a number of things. Any software or hardware that is sitting between VPOP3 and the ISP could be the root cause.

If you do this, VPOP3 will leave messages on the ISP's mail server for several days, and remember that it has already downloaded them. Then, the next time it connects it will see that there are some messages waiting, but it may find that it has already downloaded them, so it won't download them again.
