cannot open new listener
Hi Everyone,
I'm a new James user and -- surprise! -- I'm writing because I'm confused
about some issues. Before I get into them I just want to say a quick thanks
to the James team. You're providing a very valuable service!
So here's my problem. I download and unpack James 1.2.1. I run run.bat.
After being prompted to do so, I edit dnsservers, assign postmaster, root
password and set up the anti-relay mailet. I then hit enter and set the
batch file rolling again.

I don't see anything blocking port 110 on my machine. Any suggestions? Am I
doing something stupid?
Many thanks!
Mike

I have seem this problem on Windows 2000 after installing a Norton virus
checker. For some reason the virus checker listens on 110 as part of its
e-mail filetering. It does this even though the PC is not acting as a mail
server (apart from James).
A useful check is to telnet to port 110 and see if the POP3 hello prompt
states the name of the application (you will see the word james in there if
it is in fact James that is listening on that port).

Thanks for the quick reply. That was my suspicion, too, but I forgot about
netstat. Turns out my massively overbearing virus protection software has a
bunch of pop servers running in the background. One for each account.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
My first reaction when I read this is that it *has* to be that you've got
another service listening on 110
In case you dont know how (I don't mean to patronise) check by typing
netstat -l on linux or netstat -a on windows, and look for pop3 or 110.
If its really, not already open, look for anything in the log files.
This James version has been around for a while, and we haven't seen many
examples of your problem.
