Ipop3d and logging in messages

[Mark Bailey]

Hi

I am having problems with /var/log/messages

I get an error

ipop3d[8869]: Command stream end of file while reading line user=tpa host=[192.9.200.148]

and 

pop(pam_unix)[8870]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost=  user=as

for 8 users regularly, but they can fetch mail fine and have had no problems, bearing in mind we have 50+ users on the server and only 8 have this message in /var/log/messages

Anyone got any ideas ?

Regards
