can't login in pop3 mailboxes

Hi,

I've tried and tried, but i always get a 'login error' trying to login into a mailbox on one of the domains on the server. When I go to webmin, system, users and groups, click on a user with mail, 'read email' then I can see all the mails waiting to be retrieved. For example, I've got a user called hn on the hollandsenieuwe.com domain. So as user login for pop3 I've got "hn-hollandsenieuwe" as a popup box somewhere has advised me. I tried "hn" too, but I always get an login error. I'm sure about the password...

What am I doing wrong?

30/08/2009, 09:53:56: FETCH - receiving mail messages 30/08/2009, 09:53:59: FETCH - connected to POP3 server !30/08/2009, 09:54:04: FETCH - Server reports error. The response is: -ERR Login failed.

Howdy,

Hrm, do you see any errors in the mail log on the server?

That would either be in /var/log/mail.log or /var/log/maillog.
