John Fleming also suggested that along with uninstalling it using --purge. I get reasked which ipopd services I want to run but it doesn't re-ask the question regarding passwords. When I telnet to port 110 I can't issue a USER command to login via telnet. When I issue AUTH I get the following:
50: # telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK POP3 localhost v2003.83 server ready AUTH +OK Supported authentication mechanisms: .
