I use qpopper with windows office outlook & outlook express without any problems. My guess is you don't have outlook configured correctly. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Philip Radford Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 8:52 AM To: freebsd-questi

Best POP daemon to use with Postfix

Hi All, I have an issue which is starting to get annoying. I am currently running Postfix 2.3.2 under FreeBSD 5.4. Which POP3 daemons are people using to provide remote access to mail folders via POP3. I have just installed qpopper via ports which all seemed to go well until actually acessi

Portsnap && CVSup

Hello all, I am wondering how well Portsnap plays with CVSup. As an example, let's say that I accidentally deleted a Port folder (/usr/ports/print/ hplip as an example), I assume the best way of bringing it back would be CVSup and not Portsnap. Is this thinking correct? After using CVSup,
