Re: [PLUG] pop3 server?


hi,
Try qpopper. After installing, in your /etc/inetd.conf file uncomment the
following lines:

#:MAIL: Mail, news and uucp services.
smtp            stream  tcp     nowait  mail    /usr/sbin/exim exim -bs
pop-3          stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd   /usr/sbin/in.qpopper -f /etc/qpopper.conf

BTW I am running exim as my MTA.
