5391.0. "POP mail faiure with %NONAME-E-NOMSG, Message number 0000002" by CSC32::R_WILLIAMS () Mon Mar 31 1997 14:35

    Hi,
    
    I have a very frustrated customer.  He has been trying for a long time
    to get POP configured on his system.  Based on the C error code, it
    looks to be a file or directory not found error.  Any help would be
    appreciated in getting this customer on-line.
    
    Thanks,
    
    -Rick

	Hello Rick,

In case it could help you, I just want to share with you the 
setup of my POP3 server, which seems to work correctly (owing to the 
last tests I've done today).

Best regards,
Pierre-Etienne

You could also try a basic TELNET connection to the POP server:

    2.13 POP Extensions ]
      .../...
  $ TELNET UCXSYS 110

  xtnd loglevel debug
        +OK logging level changed to debug

  quit
        +OK UCX POP server at ucxsys.acme.com signing off.

Following commands may also be interactively entered:
  XTND STATS
  STAT
  RETR 1
  QUIT

NB: There is no command "HELP" on UCX$POP,
    but this command exists on a Unix POP server.
    It's a way to get a more complete list of POP commands.

    Thanks Pierre-Etienne.  I'll have the customer try your setups.  I did
    file a formal IPMT case against this problem.  Maybe we can get some
    better diagnostics that can help pinpoint the actual problem.  it all
    seems too cryptic.
