yuuji@0 | 16 .SH NAME |

yuuji@0 | 18 .SH SYNOPSIS |

yuuji@0 | 22 .SH DESCRIPTION |
yuuji@0 | 23 .I ipop2d |
yuuji@0 | 24 and |
yuuji@0 | 25 .I ipop3d |
yuuji@0 | 26 are servers which support the |
yuuji@0 | 27 .B POP2 |
yuuji@0 | 28 and |
yuuji@0 | 29 .B POP3 |
yuuji@0 | 30 remote mail access protocols respectively. |
yuuji@0 | 31 .I ipop2d |
yuuji@0 | 32 and |
yuuji@0 | 33 .I ipop3d |
yuuji@0 | 34 can also be used by |
yuuji@0 | 35 .B POP2 |
yuuji@0 | 36 and |
yuuji@0 | 37 .B POP3 |
yuuji@0 | 38 clients respecitively to access mailboxes on |
yuuji@0 | 39 .B IMAP |
yuuji@0 | 40 servers by specifying a login user name in the form <host>:<user> |
yuuji@0 | 41 e.g., |
yuuji@0 | 42 .B SERVER.WASHINGTON.EDU:SMITH. |
yuuji@0 | 43 .PP |
yuuji@0 | 44 These daemons contain CRAM-MD5 and APOP support. See the md5.txt |
yuuji@0 | 45 documentation file for additional information. |

yuuji@0 | 52 normally for requests to connect to the |
yuuji@0 | 53 .B POP |
yuuji@0 | 54 port as indicated by the |
yuuji@0 | 55 .I /etc/services |
yuuji@0 | 56 file (see |

yuuji@0 | 59 imapd(8) |
yuuji@0 | 60 .SH BUGS |
yuuji@0 | 61 The |
yuuji@0 | 62 .B POP2 |
yuuji@0 | 63 and |
yuuji@0 | 64 .B POP3 |
yuuji@0 | 65 protocols are intrinsically less flexible than |
yuuji@0 | 66 .B IMAP |
yuuji@0 | 67 and do not maintain `read' vs `unread' state on the server. As a result, |
yuuji@0 | 68 most |
yuuji@0 | 69 .B POP |
yuuji@0 | 70 based software transfers all the mail from the server to the client and |
yuuji@0 | 71 deletes it from the server. This necessarily locks the user into using only |
yuuji@0 | 72 a single client. |
yuuji@0 | 73 .PP |
yuuji@0 | 74 .B POP3 |
yuuji@0 | 75 does not allow you to specify an alternate folder from the user's default. |
