    1.19 +.SH NAME
    1.20 +IPOPd \- Post Office Protocol server
    1.21 +.SH SYNOPSIS
    1.22 +.B /usr/etc/ipop2d
    1.23 +.PP
    1.24 +.B /usr/etc/ipop3d
    1.25 +.SH DESCRIPTION
    1.26 +.I ipop2d
    1.27 +and
    1.28 +.I ipop3d
    1.29 +are servers which support the
    1.30 +.B POP2
    1.31 +and
    1.32 +.B POP3
    1.33 +remote mail access protocols respectively.
    1.34 +.I ipop2d
    1.35 +and
    1.36 +.I ipop3d
    1.37 +can also be used by
    1.38 +.B POP2
    1.39 +and
    1.40 +.B POP3
    1.41 +clients respecitively to access mailboxes on
    1.42 +.B IMAP
    1.43 +servers by specifying a login user name in the form <host>:<user>
    1.44 +e.g.,
    1.45 +.B SERVER.WASHINGTON.EDU:SMITH.
    1.46 +.PP
    1.47 +These daemons contain CRAM-MD5 and APOP support.  See the md5.txt
    1.48 +documentation file for additional information.
    1.49 +.PP
    1.50 +.I ipop2d
    1.51 +and
    1.52 +.I ipop3d
    1.53 +are invoked by the internet server (see
    1.54 +.IR inetd (8)),
    1.55 +normally for requests to connect to the
    1.56 +.B POP
    1.57 +port as indicated by the
    1.58 +.I /etc/services
    1.59 +file (see
    1.60 +.IR services (5)).
    1.61 +.SH "SEE ALSO"

    1.63 +.SH BUGS
    1.64 +The
    1.65 +.B POP2
    1.66 +and
    1.67 +.B POP3
    1.68 +protocols are intrinsically less flexible than
    1.69 +.B IMAP
    1.70 +and do not maintain `read' vs `unread' state on the server.  As a result,
    1.71 +most
    1.72 +.B POP
    1.73 +based software transfers all the mail from the server to the client and
    1.74 +deletes it from the server.  This necessarily locks the user into using only
    1.75 +a single client.
    1.76 +.PP
    1.77 +.B POP3
    1.78 +does not allow you to specify an alternate folder from the user's default.
