Pop3 Proxy not working

HomeUser6866
Dear all,

I am using UTM for home use. Hence I send Emails from clients to e.g. a public email system.
I have activated POP3 Proxy, added all internal networks, enabled TLS using the admin certificate.

No matter what I do the email POP 3 Statistics tell me 0 Emails as well as the Email Proxy Log does not show any sign of scanning pop 3 traffic.

I am expecting something to work which doesn't or do I miss a basic setting to get the POP3 Proxy to work ?

Email are sent and received by the clients

Kind regards & thx for your help

    Try a google on site:astaro.org pop3 proxy not working - any luck with any of those threads?

    Thx Bob !!!!

    I was just not patient enough.
    For the POP3 Proxy to work the security certificate needs to be selected in the TLS section. Once I selected this and had the next mail traffic - everything was fine.

    Kind regards

    Hi Guys,
    I'm having a problem with the POP3 as well. i recently ran fsck to fix some errors on my UTM due to several hard shutdowns that rendered it unbootable.

    It's backup, but mails have were not coming in via pop3. Further investigations revealed the following error
    -----
    2015:05:08-13:47:27 ALCATRAZ pop3proxy[14472]: Can't connect to database, retrying in 10 seconds: FATAL: could not open file "base/16591/12369": No such file or directory
    2015:05:08-13:47:52 ALCATRAZ pop3proxy[24390]: Can't connect to database, retrying in 10 seconds: FATAL: could not open file "base/16591/12369": No such file or directory 
    -----

    Is there any way to rebuild the pop3 scanning database? Could it resolve itself over time or do i consider restoring an old backup done before the error on the HDD?

    Thanks!

    You can try reinitializing all of the PostgreSQL databases (deletes all info displayed in graphs in Reporting).  As root:
    /etc/init.d/postgresql92 rebuild


    But, given the fsck, I would guess that a full re-install from ISO and restore from config backup is what you will have to do.

    Cheers - Bob

    Thanks! Does this mean i have to connect to it via ssh?

    Yes, connect via SSH as loginuser, then su to root before running the command.
