I'm probably closer to the POP server problem than most, and I've yet to run across a freeware popper that doesn't make me want to throw up. The user should have the choice of what makes him/her/it throw up, however, which is why the POP servers should remain a package and be kept out of /usr/src. Hopefully Packages-TNG will appear sooner rather than later. Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations.
