mailscanner with regualar POP, YahooPOPs, HotPopper?

[riechert]

I'm using Mozilla 1.6 with several standard POP servers, YahooPOPs and HotPopper. In Mozilla I have(without trying to use Avast):
-regular POP accounts
   servername = mail.qwest.net=110
-YahooPOPs
   servername = 127.0.0.1, port 111
-HotPopper
   servername = 127.0.0.1, port 112

I'm having trouble getting the right settings for the Avast mail scanner. I'm trying to get 1 account set at a time starting with a regular POP.
In avast4.ini :
  DefaultPopServer=mail.qwest.net
  DefaultSmtpServer=mail.qwest.net
In Mozilla I change the server settings to
  server = 127.0.0.1, port 110, username = mylogon#mail.qwest.net
when I check for mail I get an error that it was unable to send the password, YahooPOPS was unable to logon.  

Why am I getting a message from YahooPOPs when I'm using a different port? What do the settings need to be to get this to work, both for the regular POPs and YahooPOPs andHotPopper?

Have you tried the Mail setup wizard? I think it works with Mozilla Mail

Yes, I get the same error whether I use the Mail Wizard or try to set things up manually.

 server = 127.0.0.1, port 110, username = mylogon#mail.qwest.net
when I check for mail I get an error that it was unable to send the password, YahooPOPS was unable to logon.  

It's strange. Check if avast mail scanner really listens on port 110,
e.g. look to the file Avast4\DATA\log\aswMaiSv.log for errors.

-YahooPOPs
   servername = 127.0.0.1, port 111

change to servername = 127.0.0.1, port 110, username = name#127.0.0.1:111

-HotPopper
   servername = 127.0.0.1, port 112

change to servername = 127.0.0.1, port 110, username = name#127.0.0.1:112

I reran the mail wizard to set things up again and then started Mozilla and got the same error message from yahoopops. The settings in Mozilla are the same as before: server=127.0.0.1, port=110, username=mylogon#mail.qwest.net   There are no errors shown in the log file. I haven't changed the yahoopops or hotpopper settings yet.

It does work, I've got Mercury/32 as a mail server (on port 110), YahooPops (on port 111) and Avast on (112). Whenever I want to connect, I use this:

Username: username#hostname:port

So in the case of YahooPops, which happens to be on the same machine, I would connect to port 112 and use:

USER myusername#localhost:111
PASS [hidden]
LIST
RETR 1
RETR 2
etc...

By default, Avast does listen on 110, you can change this via the mail config wizard.
