I've been using Net::POP3 in my own e-mail fetching script for a
while.  Now, however, I want to modify the script to use the K9 proxy
for spam filtering.  This proxy requires, among other things, that I
use port 9999 instead of the default port of 110.

According to the documentation, I think I can do they when I
instantiate the POP3 object, by specifying the RsvPort option on the
constructor.  However, I don't understand this documentation:

> ResvPort - If given then the socket for the Net::POP3 object will be
> bound to the local port given using bind when the socket is
> created. 

Can anyone tell me what that involves?  I'm not explicitly creating a
socket now, so I'm assuming I need to do something differently, but I
don't know what or how.

Clues?

I would consider using SAproxy instead of K9, but I don't think
there's a free version of SAproxy anymore.  I think that doesn't
require a socket to be specified.


Thanks very much,
