but after setting everyting up I get the following error:

Escape character is '^]'.

+OK Hello there.

+OK Password required.

pass test

-ERR Maildir: No such file or directory

Connection closed by foreign host.

The Maildir will be created py postfix when the first email is send to the account. So send an email first and then try to fetch it.

tried to mail, but now my logfiles say:

where can I find mail.policy?

Did you follow this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_po..._quota_courier to the letter? Because it doesn't even mention a table policy. I guess you have that table somewhere in your Postfix configuration files...

yeah I did, it was probably a typo in my amavisd.conf but when I used the one in the howto it suddenly worked, so problem solved.
thanx fast for the replies
