Date: Thu, 15 Jun 1995 14:03:34 +0100 Message-ID: <461.803221414@whisker.internet-eireann.ie> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: hackers-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I'm using POP here and invoking it with: inc -noapop -truncate -host freefall.cdrom.com Which works just fine, except for the fact that inc is no longer "transparently", e.g. I can't just do an `i' from mh-e mode in emacs. I've read the man page for `inc' many times, but there doesn't seem to be any kind of `inc options' file, nor can I figure out a way of typing in the password when running it from emacs anyway. How do more frequent pop users deal with this? I generally don't use POP unless I'm in an unusual situation, as I am at the moment in Ireland.. :-) Also, on the subject of general authentication, does "popper" deal with "APOP" and, if so, how do people generally configure it to send the appropriate password? Sorry for all these questions, but the documentation (which I have indeed read!) that accompanys MH is rather sparse! Thanks! Jordan
