For example, if you installed it on mybox.domain.com, that's what you and users would need to connect to in order to retrieve mail. If you want to be able to check it at mail.domain.com instead of mybox.domain.com, you'll need to set it up in your name server so mail.domain.com points to mybox.domain.com. Did you uncomment or add the proper stuff to /etc/inetd.conf for pop3?
