Hi,

We are using WNQVTnet at our site and would like to use the POP client.

But.... ULTRIX has no POP server :-(

Would someone be so kind as to point me in the right direction?

Email please!!!

Thanks.

4.2: 	/etc/popd
4.3:	/usr/lib/mh/popd

Does this help?

There are several popmail servers for Unix on boombox.micro.umn.edu for
anonymous ftp in /pub/POPmail/unix.  I am using popd.c on a DECstation
5000/240 with no problems so far.

Um, I have 4.2A and /etc/popd is a directory (empty) on my machine and
a couple others here.  However, I do seem to have /usr/lib/mh/popd,
haven't tried it though.

Sorry, started the typing fingers before I started my brain.  /usr/lib/mh/popd
is the POP server, though.  Unfortunately no man page appears in the
ULTRIX distribution for this program and a few others.

Sources (and documentation) for a mh 6.7 (similar to what ships on
the ULTRIX distribution), which includes man pages for popd, can be had
from pub/mail/ua/mh on gatekeeper.dec.com.
