Help setting up Pop3 on qmail!

Ok... I spent the last 2 days pulling half my hair out trying to setup Pop3 on qmail.

1) I followed the directions on www.iifewithqmail.org. I installed checkpassword, ucspi-tcp-0.88, and daemontools programs.

2) I installed vpopmail at http://www.inter7.com/vpopmail/

3) I tried making it work with and without the pop3 setup directions on lifewithqmail.org. I tried it without because I figured vpopmail had a different pop3 setup configuration.

4) I used this script (provided at the vpopmail site) to start the tcpserver:

env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mydomain.com \
/home-dir-of-vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail- pop3d Maildir &


SMTP works fine, but Pop3 doesn't. I'm able to send mail to my mailbox, located at /home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain.com/anyname/Maildir, but I'm unable to retrieve it on Eudora email client.

It gives me this Error message:

"Logging into POP Server, Pass
There has been an error transferring your mail
I said: Pass <shhhh! Don't tell anyone and then the POP server said: ERR authorization failed"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
