Gotcha.

There is no POP3  rpm.  What you can find is the IMAP  rpm. Actually Pop2,
pop3 and imap is bundle in this rpm. Without the Imap package, you can't
run pop3 in Redhat.

Check whether the imap rpm installed in your system

rpm -ql  imap

You should see something like this
/etc/pam.d/imap
/usr/doc/imap-4.4
/usr/doc/imap-4.4/README
/usr/man/man8/imapd.8c
/usr/man/man8/ipopd.8c
/usr/sbin/imapd
/usr/sbin/ipop2d
/usr/sbin/ipop3d


If you get 'package not installed' , install it. Get the imap rpm and
install it using this command
rpm -ivh   imap*.rpm

Open your editor, e.g. vi  to modify the /etc/inetd.conf
vi  /etc/inetd.conf

# Pop and imap mail services et al
#
#pop-2   stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  ipop2d
#pop-3   stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  ipop3d
#imap    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  imapd

Remove the "#" sign for he services you want to start.

Then reboot your system. (FYI, there is way to restart the network setting
without reboot Linux)

Hi,

I tried to set up POP3 server, dah buang comment kat dalam /etc/inetd.conf.
Lepas restart and telnet 0 110,  message yang keluar ialah

 Trying 0.0.0.0...
 Connected to 0.
 Escape character is '^^]'.
 Connection closed by foreign host.

Actually, dia tunggu jugak a few seconds before closing the connection. In
short, memang tak sempat pun nak send any commands to the server.

Please help. I am currently using RedHat 6.
