For the other person who didn't know what pop-before-smtp is;

it's a perl daemon utility that maintains a flat file db of those
who have recently popped the mail server - db entries contihue
to exist for a specific time and then are removed

the deamon does not allow anyone not in the flat file to
use smtp

it's an anti-spam relay technique - really it's a kludge, but
it works
