Runs standalone too, (no need for inetd; just run 'cucipop -Y'). It's in the ports collection, you're probably going to want v1.3. We use it almost exclusively now, much better replacement than qpopper (which has some noted security exploits most people don't bother to fix). Also, you should include some sort of subject when you post to the list, more people would probably respond if they had some inclination of what the email was about. -- Nathan Vidican webmaster@wmptl.com Windsor Match Plate & Tool Ltd. http://www.wmptl.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
