The qpopper package contains a POP 3 mail server.
qpopper depends on: sendmail-8.12.9 or postfix-2.0.7 or qmail-1.03 |
Install qpopper with the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install |
/etc/inetd.conf and /etc/syslogd.conf
If you use inetd, the following command will add the qpopper entry to /etc/inetd.conf:
echo "pop stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/popper popper" >> \ /etc/inetd.conf && echo "pop 110/tcp" >> /etc/services && killall inetd || inetd && echo "local0.notice;local0.debug /var/log/POP.log" >> \ /etc/syslog.conf && killall -HUP syslogd |
Issue a killall -HUP inetd to reread the changed inetd.conf file.
If you use xinetd, the following command will add the qpopper entry to /etc/xinetd.conf:
cat >> /etc/xinetd.conf << "EOF"
service pop
{
port = 110
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
passenv = PATH
server = /usr/sbin/popper
server_args = popper
}
EOF |
Issue a killall -HUP xinetd to reread the changed xinetd.conf file.
