If the machine running the pop3 server is properly configured (no TCP wrappers, no firewall, etc) from some other machine you should be able to: telnet machine pop3 (whatever the machine's name is). If this fails but you can do it from the machine running the pop server you have a) a network issue b) an over secure problem (meaning something is protecting the pop server and shouldn't be). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
