I've used XPAI in the past, but for some reason, I can't seem to get a valid log in working. Xmail is running, I can telnet into port 6017 and submit the superuser name and password and get in OK. I've run Xmail in debug verbose mode, everytime I attempt to login, I see:

CODE

CTRL client connection from [127.0.0.1]
CTRL client exit [127.0.0.1]

and all I get from XPAI is

CODE

There has been an error logging in as user: superuser@domain.tld

Check username (user@domain) or password!

I've even tried logging in as just superuser and I get the same result. I've also added superuser as a mailusers.tab user in the domain as I saw suggested on another post.
I guess I just need some step by step instructions on what is needed, the documentation is somewhat ambiguous.

Oh, and here are the pertient parts of my config.php

CODE

$servers = array("Localhost"=>"localhost:6017");
$_SESSION['xpai_user'] = "xerxes";
$_SESSION['xpai_pwd'] = "unencryptedpassword";
$super_users = array("superuser");
$postmaster_users = array("postmaster");

As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

Only the superuser is added into the domain, I can't log in as the postmaster either. Not sure what I'm missing, I did have this working on another server a while ago, so I know it can be done

Hi,
I looking to solve the same problem. Checked the .tab files several times and they seem to be ok, but still no login possible,working with no other domain then the default: "xmailserver.test".
Do you know how I can check if the xmailserver up? I using shell:

CODE

linux:/usr/bin # /etc/init.d/xmail start
Starting XMail server: XMail.[ 9778 ]

How can I log in with telnet. What is the command for shell?
Thanks

To test your ctrlaccounts.tab interface via telnet simply run: telnet [server ip] [port], i.e.:

CODE

telnet 127.0.0.1 6017

then login as:

CODE

username<tab>password

that will tell you if your account is setup correctly.

My whole server did not work that's why I set up the xmailserver once again (including reinstalling the linux suse 8.2) and IT WORKS NOW!!! thanks for help... there is a new version of xpai (115) with a small difference in configure.php. my xmailserver is working with the default configuration (default domain unchanged), only an user and a super_users with the encrypted passwords were added manually (vi ctrlaccounts.tab). greetz
