When I started pop3 downloads using PostMasterPOP3.pl, I get the following error: Notice: PostMasterPOP3.pl is already running (use '-f 1' if you want to start it forced)!
That seems another PostMaster is running. Database table "process_id" stores among others ids of PostMaster processes. Look for this process in your process list with "ps -ef". If no one is running delete process id from database table.
But why do you run PostMaster.pl manually? A cron job does it for you.
HTH, regards
