POP server, which is part of public domain Mail Handler package MH6.6,
is not part of Stanford MacIP3.0 package. MH6.6 can be obtained via
anonymous FTP from louie.udel.edu : portal/mh-6.6.tar.Z.

The installation of MH is not an easy task. From the description of
your problem, you might want to read doc/mhook.man about how your
incoming mail is intercepted by POP (uip/slocal program) to be put
in your mail spool area in POP format. Assuming you setup you MH config
file with POP, RPOP ans SendMail as mts, then you need to pipe you
incoming mail to "slocal" via .forward file.

BTW, the use of "slocal" is NOT mentioned in ADMIN.doc or READ-ME file.
