I setup Postfix and Dovecot on a new Ubuntu box following these directions.
From a client machine, I validate that POP3 seems to be working
telnet mydomain.com 110
+OK Dovecot ready.
USER me@mydomain.com
+OK
PASS mypassword
+OK Logged in.
quit
+OK Logging out.
However, when trying to configure Gmail on the same client to retrieve email via POP3, I get the error
Server denied POP3 access for t
Below is my configuration
# 2.0.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

mail_location = maildir:/nfs/users/%u/Maildir
passdb {

}
protocols = " imap pop3"
service auth {
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
group = postfix
