Well it would help to know what you are running, are you running stock stuff as
in the mail server that came with RH or something else. If you are running the
defaults then you can find sendmail (shudder shudder) as the smtp and I guess
you can open a terminal window and perform a :
> telnet localhost 110
> QUIT <--- to get out of the pop3 session
This should tell you what you are running for a POP server, I think that you
will be running stock RH pop. That should be running via /etc/xinetd.d/pop so
its an inetd system. Whenever you get a request for pop the inetd will start up
the pop3d for you.
I would indeed suggest that you also activate Imap which is a better way to go
than pop3. I also wonder if there is a file to set things up for pop3, I don't
use the stock stuff as there is much better out there.
Cheers,
Aly.
