Uff! I guess I should have paied attention to all help requests about running popper on the NeXT. I am now in the position to have to run the POP 3 protocol on NeXTStep 3.0. I have some sources which will compile without problems (inserted one missing 'char' type declaration) and which will actually start. But if I try to connect to the popper (inetd and services properly configured and niloaded), it just dies without any warning or error. Debuggin is enabled, but nothing shows up in the log files. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank's in advance. P.S. If mail returns errors, you may asume that it arrived any way. We are currently reconfiguring our servers, which causes some problems. -- Robert Frank tel. + (061) 321 99 67 Institut fuer Informatik fax + (061) 321 99 15 University of Basel, Switzerland Mittlere Strasse 142 rfc822: frank@ifi.unibas.ch (NeXT mail accepted) CH-4056 Basel X400: S=frank;OU=ifi;O=unibas;P=switch;A=arcom;C=ch

This is the line I added to mine, (under NS 2.2) local0.notice;local0.debug /usr/spool/mqueue/POPlog Have o tried: telnet localhost 110 The popper should show up and send a message to your terminal, you can end the connection just typing 'quit' (no quotes) and ENTER. Like this... *********************************************************** ~> telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK UCB Pop server (version 1.7b1) at jessica.bvl.pt starting. quit +OK Pop server at jessica.bvl.pt signing off. Connection closed by foreign host. ~> *********************************************************** If the popper don't show up, try telnet to port 109, 109 is the pop2 port, maybe your /etc/services is not correct. (Or maybe is something with NS 3.0, in that case, forget everything I said... I don't know nothing about it). : Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank's in advance. I hope this helps... -- regards, ____ |/asco ----------------------------------------------------------------------
