-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Look at qmail (http://www.qmail.org/) for the qmail-popup stuff. This is one alternative. Basically the formula for this setup is to break the POP3 service into two parts - authentication, and the program that does the real work. You can then write (or use someone else's) authentication module and not much with the back end. (I am only biased towards qmail b/c that is what I have the most experience with. I am sure there are other schemes that do just as good of a job.) Brian At 01:12 PM 10/31/97 -0600, Hal Snyder wrote: >On Wed, 29 Oct 1997 18:22:19 -0500 (EST), "Matthew N.
