Anyway, I seriously suggest you use qpopper instead. There is at least one very good reason: last time I checked, in.pop3d didn't log the erroneous passwords, so a cracker could use it to try typical passwords (even if you have shadow). Package: qpopper Status: install ok installed Priority: extra Section: mail Installed-Size: 110 Maintainer: Miquel van Smoorenburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Version: 2.2-4 Depends: libc5 (>= 5.4.0-0), libgdbm1 Description: Enhanced Post Office Protocol server (POP3). This is The Qualcomm enhanced version of the Post Office Protocol Daemon (POP3 daemon), based on the latest BSD version. The QualComm popper has some extensions to the normal pop3 daemon, such as UIDL and bulletin support. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
