As far as I know, Postfix by itself does not handle the POPping of messages - you need a separate program for this. I've installed courier-pop, qpopper, cyrus-pop3d and dovecot-pop3d are some possible alternatives. Perhaps you should issue a ps -fe | grep -i pop ... and see if there's a pop3-server already running or not. -- Matthijs [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
